Minnesota Vikings and New England Patriots
New England Patriots Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Minnesota traded four selections to New England for pick No. 29 and selected Cordarrelle Patterson. Patterson became an elite return specialist immediately and earned multiple All-Pro honors, but he never developed into a consistent featured receiver during four Vikings seasons. New England used the premium picks on Jamie Collins and Logan Ryan, both major defensive contributors to championship teams, plus Josh Boyce and another late selection. The Patriots converted quantity into higher overall value.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Win Tier: minor
Confidence: high
Minnesota Vikings acquired 2013 6th round pick (196th overall, Jeff Baca) and 2013 7th round pick (229th overall, Everett Dawkins); 2013 6th round pick (196th overall; Jeff Baca); Draft-pick compensation details unavailable from source data from Tampa Bay Buccaneers for 2013 6th round pick (189th overall, Mike James); 2013 6th round pick (189th overall; Mike James). The overall result favors Tampa Bay Buccaneers over Minnesota Vikings.
New England Patriots Win Tier: minor
Confidence: high
Tampa Bay Buccaneers acquired Jeff Demps and 2013 7th round pick (229th overall; traded with 2013 pick 196 to Minnesota for 2013 pick 189, Mike James; Minnesota later selected Everett Dawkins at 229) from New England Patriots for LeGarrette Blount. Tampa Bay Buccaneers received the stronger recorded football value, matching the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Win verdict.
Pick 2013 7th round pick (229th overall; traded with 2013 pick 196 to Minnesota for 2013 pick 189, Mike James; Minnesota later selected Everett Dawkins at 229)
