New York Jets and Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Win Tier: major Confidence: high

Tampa Bay moved from No. 8 to No. 6 in the 1997 draft by sending the Jets a fourth-round pick. The Buccaneers immediately flipped No. 6 to Seattle for picks 12 and 63, selecting Warrick Dunn and adding capital used on Frank Middleton. New York drafted James Farrior and Leon Johnson. Both teams gained useful players, but Tampa Bay's two-step maneuver created the stronger return.
