New York Giants and Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh Steelers Win Tier: major
Confidence: medium
New York moved down from No. 25 to No. 32 in the 2006 first round and added third- and fourth-round selections, turning the package into Mathias Kiwanuka, Gerris Wilkinson and Guy Whimper. Kiwanuka became the centerpiece, spending nine seasons with the Giants, playing 120 games and recording 38.5 sacks while contributing to both Super Bowl championship eras.
Pittsburgh Steelers Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Pittsburgh moved from No. 32 to No. 25 in the 2006 first round and selected Santonio Holmes, sending the Giants No. 32 plus picks 96 and 129. Holmes became a productive Steelers receiver and the MVP of Super Bowl XLIII. New York still converted the return into Mathias Kiwanuka, Gerris Wilkinson and Guy Whimper, giving the Giants useful depth and a long-term defensive contributor.
