Trade 1 of 2

Minnesota Vikings and Denver Broncos

Even Trade Tier: standard Confidence: high

Minnesota sent pick No. 121 to Denver for selections Nos. 176 and 233 plus a 2008 third-round choice that became No. 73. The Vikings' two 2007 selections produced little direct value, but the future third later became part of the package used to acquire Jared Allen. Denver used No. 121 on Marcus Thomas, who played five seasons and started 34 games for the Broncos.

Assets Received

Minnesota Vikings
  • Pick 2007 sixth-round pick, No. 176 overall (Rufus Alexander)
  • Pick 2007 seventh-round pick, No. 233 overall (Chandler Williams)
  • Pick 2008 third-round pick, No. 73 overall
Denver Broncos
  • Pick 2007 fourth-round pick, No. 121 overall (Marcus Thomas)

Trade 2 of 2

Kansas City Chiefs and Minnesota Vikings

Minnesota Vikings Win Tier: landmark Confidence: high

Minnesota paid a first-round pick, two third-rounders, and a sixth-rounder for Jared Allen plus a future sixth, then received six seasons of elite edge production. Allen recorded 85.5 sacks as a Viking, including 22 in 2011, and became the centerpiece of a contending defense. The acquisition cost was enormous, but Minnesota bought a star in his prime and got star-level performance for the full competitive window it was targeting.

Assets Received

Minnesota Vikings
  • Pick Jared Allen and 2009 6th round pick (187th overall subsequently traded, Brandon Underwood)
Kansas City Chiefs
  • Pick 2008 1st round pick (17th overall subsequently traded, Gosder Cherilus), 2008 3rd round pick (73rd overall, Jamaal Charles), 2008 3rd round pick (82nd overall, DaJuan Morgan) and 2008 6th round pick (182nd overall, Kevin Robinson)
