Kiko Alonso NFL Trade History

Buffalo moved from No. 8 to No. 16 and added three more picks, selecting EJ Manuel, Kiko Alonso, Marquise Goodwin and Chris Gragg. Manuel did not solve quarterback, but Alonso delivered an exceptional rookie season and later became the trade asset used to acquire LeSean McCoy, while Goodwin provided four seasons of speed. St. Louis used No. 8 on Tavon Austin and No. 71 on T.J. McDonald. Both teams found contributors, with Buffalo's depth and Alonso's later value providing the edge.

Buffalo acquired LeSean McCoy for Kiko Alonso and received the best direct player in the exchange. McCoy spent four seasons with the Bills, topped 1,000 rushing yards twice and made multiple Pro Bowls. Philadelphia got one season from Alonso before packaging him with Byron Maxwell and a first-round pick to move from No. 13 to No. 8 in 2016. That later draft maneuver salvaged meaningful value, but Buffalo still won the original swap.

Philadelphia sent Byron Maxwell, Kiko Alonso, and the No. 13 pick to Miami for the No. 8 pick. Miami selected Laremy Tunsil, who became an elite tackle and later produced another enormous trade return. Philadelphia escaped two unwanted contracts and used No. 8 as the foundation of its move for Carson Wentz. Both franchises achieved major strategic value.

Miami acquired linebacker Vince Biegel from New Orleans in a straight player swap for Kiko Alonso immediately after the 2019 roster cutdown. Biegel played 15 games, started 10, recorded 59 combined tackles, 2.5 sacks and an interception. Alonso played 13 games with four starts for the Saints before a serious postseason knee injury ended his season.

San Francisco traded Kwon Alexander to New Orleans for Kiko Alonso and a conditional fifth-round pick that became Deommodore Lenoir in 2021. Alonso supplied no playing return, but Lenoir developed into a long-term member of the secondary and earned a major extension. That direct draft outcome gives the 49ers the stronger lasting value from the exchange.
