Chronological Timeline
4 Recorded Trades
Trade 1 of 4
Indianapolis Colts and Philadelphia Eagles
Philadelphia turned a deteriorated Carson Wentz situation into a 2021 third-round pick and a conditional 2022 selection that became a first-rounder after Wentz met the playing-time threshold in Indianapolis. The Eagles escaped the quarterback relationship, gained valuable draft flexibility and avoided needing Wentz to rebound for the transaction to work. Extracting a first-round return after his disastrous 2020 season made the outcome especially favorable.

New Orleans Saints and Philadelphia Eagles
New Orleans acquired two 2022 first-round slots and used one on Trevor Penning, while Philadelphia received a future first, a future second, and additional selections. The 2023 first became the No. 10 pick that Philadelphia used in the move for Jalen Carter. The Eagles converted patience into premium, championship-level roster value.

New Orleans Saints and Washington Commanders
New Orleans moved from No. 16 to No. 11 in 2022 for Chris Olave, sending Washington third- and fourth-round picks in the process. Olave has 291 catches for 3,728 yards and 19 touchdowns through four seasons, earned second-team All-Pro honors in 2025 and signed a new extension in 2026. Washington received meaningful value from Jahan Dotson and Brian Robinson Jr., but Olave became the best player in the transaction.
Assets Received
New Orleans Saints
- Pick 2022 1st round pick (11th overall, Chris Olave)
Washington Commanders
- Pick 2022 1st round pick (16th overall, Jahan Dotson), 2022 3rd round pick (98th overall, Brian Robinson) and 2022 4th round pick (120th overall subsequently traded, Brandon Smith)

Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders
Washington traded Jahan Dotson and a 2025 fifth-round pick to Philadelphia for a 2025 third-rounder and two 2025 seventh-rounders. Dotson helped the Eagles' championship run but remained a low-volume receiver, posting 216 regular-season yards in 2024 and 262 in 2025. Washington converted a player outside its plans into substantially stronger draft capital, giving the Commanders the long-term value edge.
Assets Received
Washington Commanders
- Pick 2025 3rd round pick (79th overall subsequently traded, Jaylin Noel), 2025 7th round pick (236th overall subsequently traded, LeQuint Allen) and 2025 7th round pick (248th overall subsequently traded, Moliki Matavao)
Philadelphia Eagles
- Pick Jahan Dotson and 2025 5th round pick (165th overall subsequently traded, Oronde Gadsden)
