Trade 1 of 4

New England Patriots and Washington Commanders

Even Trade Tier: standard Confidence: high

Washington and New England exchanged third-round positions in March 2003, with Washington receiving picks 81 and 140 for pick 75 and a 2004 fourth-rounder. Washington used No. 81 on Derrick Dockery, who became a durable multi-year starting guard. New England later used pick 75 in its move for Eugene Wilson and traded the 2004 fourth for veteran nose tackle Ted Washington. Both sides created important value, supporting an even verdict.

Assets Received

Washington Commanders
  • Pick 2003 3rd round pick (81st overall, Derrick Dockery)
  • Pick 2003 5th round pick (140th overall; later traded)
New England Patriots
  • Pick 2003 3rd round pick (75th overall; later included in trade with Houston for picks 36 and 117)
  • Pick 2004 4th round pick (104th overall; later traded to Chicago for Ted Washington)

Trade 2 of 4

Chicago Bears and New England Patriots

New England Patriots Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

New England acquired veteran nose tackle Ted Washington from Chicago in August 2003 for a 2004 fourth-round pick. Washington gave the Patriots exactly the massive interior presence they wanted for a championship run, while Chicago turned the future pick into another draft asset. The Bears recovered some value, but New England received immediate, high-leverage help for a Super Bowl season and earns the stronger grade.

Assets Received

Chicago Bears
  • Pick 2004 4th round pick (104th overall subsequently traded, Isaac Sopoaga)
New England Patriots
  • Player Ted Washington

Assets Received

  • Pick 2004 4th round pick (104th overall, Isaac Sopoaga)
Chicago Bears

Trade 4 of 4

New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles

Philadelphia Eagles Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Philadelphia sent defensive tackle Isaac Sopoaga and a 2014 sixth-round pick to New England for a 2014 fifth-rounder at the trade deadline. Sopoaga played only six regular-season games for the Patriots and was released the following March. The Eagles then used acquired pick No. 169 to trade for Darren Sproles, who became a Pro Bowl returner and major offensive weapon in Philadelphia. That downstream conversion creates a decisive Eagles win.

Assets Received

Philadelphia Eagles
  • Pick 2014 5th round pick (169th overall subsequently traded, Ronald Powell)
New England Patriots
  • Player Isaac Sopoaga
  • Pick 2014 6th round pick (198th overall, Zach Moore)
