Jacksonville Jaguars and Miami Dolphins

Miami Dolphins Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Miami sent Jacksonville the 60th and 99th picks for four selections: Nos. 79, 98, 134 and 150. The Dolphins' most valuable direct result was Shane Burton, who played 47 games and made 12 starts for Miami before continuing a 125-game NFL career. Jacksonville selected Michael Cheever at No. 60 and later moved No. 99 for more picks. Both teams created useful pieces, but Miami's larger package produced the better direct return.

  • Pick 1996 3rd round pick (79th overall, Dorian Brew), 1996 4th round pick (98th overall subsequently traded, Donnie Edwards), 1996 5th round pick (134th overall, Jerris McPhail) and 1996 5th round pick (150th overall, Shane Burton)

Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins

Kansas City Chiefs Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Miami sent Kansas City the 98th pick and a 1997 seventh-rounder for the 113th and 125th picks. Kansas City used No. 98 on linebacker Donnie Edwards, who became a 197-game NFL starter with 107 career Approximate Value. Miami selected Kirk Pointer and LaCurtis Jones; neither became a meaningful long-term contributor. Edwards' career makes the Chiefs the overwhelming winner despite the extra future pick they surrendered.
