Houston Texans and New England Patriots
Even Trade Tier: minor
Confidence: high
New England Patriots acquired 2003 5th round pick (154th overall subsequently traded, Donnie Nickey) from Houston Texans for Greg Randall. The available record does not show enough separation to call a clear long-term winner.
New England Patriots Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
New England sent Tennessee picks No. 154 and No. 225 in 2003 for selections No. 164, No. 201 and No. 243. The Patriots used the first acquired pick on center Dan Koppen, who started 120 regular-season games for New England and won two Super Bowls. Tennessee's return produced Donnie Nickey and Todd Williams, giving the Patriots a major advantage from a seemingly modest late-round shuffle.
