New England Patriots and New Orleans Saints
Even Trade Tier: major
Confidence: high
New Orleans traded its 2011 second-round pick and 2012 first-round pick to New England for No. 28, using it on running back Mark Ingram. Ingram became the Saints' all-time rushing leader and a three-time Pro Bowler. New England got productive back Shane Vereen and later used the future first as part of the move up for pass rusher Chandler Jones. Both teams created substantial value, making this a rare trade that aged well for each side.
New England Patriots Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
New England moved from No. 27 to No. 21 for Chandler Jones, giving Cincinnati the No. 93 pick as the premium. Jones produced 36 sacks in four Patriots seasons and contributed to the Super Bowl XLIX championship before being traded in 2016. The return from that later trade helped New England acquire Joe Thuney and Malcolm Mitchell. Cincinnati still landed long-term starting guard Kevin Zeitler plus Brandon Thompson, making this a rare draft trade with major value on both sides.
New York Giants Win Tier: landmark
Confidence: high
Cleveland acquired Odell Beckham Jr. from the Giants in exchange for Jabrill Peppers, the 17th pick in the 2019 draft and a third-round pick. Beckham produced one 1,000-yard season for the Browns but never became the transformational piece Cleveland expected. The Giants used the first-rounder on Dexter Lawrence, who developed into a multiple-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle.
The Giants and Browns completed a veteran-for-veteran swap centered on guard Kevin Zeitler and edge defender Olivier Vernon. New York strengthened the interior offensive line, while Cleveland added a proven pass rusher to a defense being rebuilt around Myles Garrett. The realized returns remain close enough that neither club separates from an Even Trade verdict.
