New Orleans Saints and Washington Commanders
Washington Commanders Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Washington moved on from former No. 3 overall pick Heath Shuler and received a 1997 fifth-rounder plus a 1998 third-rounder. The later pick became running back Skip Hicks, who scored 13 rushing touchdowns in 38 NFL games. Shuler's New Orleans stint was brief and unsuccessful. Recovering two draft choices from a quarterback who was already trending toward bust status made this a strong Washington exit.
