Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Minnesota traded four selections to New England for pick No. 29 and selected Cordarrelle Patterson. Patterson became an elite return specialist immediately and earned multiple All-Pro honors, but he never developed into a consistent featured receiver during four Vikings seasons. New England used the premium picks on Jamie Collins and Logan Ryan, both major defensive contributors to championship teams, plus Josh Boyce and another late selection. The Patriots converted quantity into higher overall value.
Trade 2 of 2
New England traded Jamie Collins during a championship season rather than carry an approaching free-agent negotiation into the offseason. The Patriots received a 2017 third-round selection and proved they could absorb the football loss, winning Super Bowl LI without him. Collins was a talented and versatile defender, so the move looked risky in real time. In hindsight, New England converted an expiring asset into draft value without damaging its title run.
