Dallas Cowboys and New England Patriots

New England Patriots Win Tier: minor Confidence: high

Dallas traded linebacker Jesse Solomon to New England in September 1991 for a 1992 sixth-round pick that became No. 149 Fallon Wacasey. New England then moved Solomon to Tampa Bay one day later for a 1992 fifth-round pick, effectively upgrading the draft value it had spent. Dallas received a legitimate future choice, but the Patriots' immediate flip created the better result.

New England Patriots Win Tier: minor Confidence: high

New England traded linebacker Jesse Solomon to Tampa Bay on September 18, 1991 for the Buccaneers' 1992 fifth-round pick. The selection became No. 116, which the Patriots used on Dwayne Sabb. Solomon had only recently arrived in New England from Dallas, but that earlier deal was separate. Tampa Bay obtained immediate linebacker help, while New England turned a short stay into a mid-round pick and receives the slight edge.
