Kansas City Chiefs and Minnesota Vikings
Minnesota Vikings Win Tier: landmark
Confidence: high
Minnesota paid a premium draft package for Jared Allen and received six seasons of elite edge production, including a near-record 22-sack campaign. Kansas City obtained substantial rebuilding capital and did not leave empty-handed, but the Vikings acquired the defining player and a franchise-level pass rusher during a competitive window.
Carolina Panthers Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Carolina acquired veteran pass rusher Jared Allen from Chicago in September 2015 for a conditional 2016 sixth-round pick. Allen's Panthers stint was brief, but he supplied experienced edge depth to a defense that helped Carolina finish 15-1 and reach Super Bowl 50. Chicago was beginning a transition and recovered a late pick. For a contender paying a small price for useful veteran help, the Panthers got the better result.
