Minnesota Vikings and Seattle Seahawks
Minnesota Vikings Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Minnesota moved back into the first round for Teddy Bridgewater, sending Seattle picks No. 40 and No. 108. Bridgewater became the Vikings' starter, made the Pro Bowl after the 2015 season and helped produce an NFC North title before a catastrophic knee injury changed his trajectory. Seattle traded No. 40 again and collected additional selections while using No. 108 on Cassius Marsh. Both sides got useful value, with Minnesota's starting-quarterback payoff providing the stronger peak.
Seattle Seahawks received 2014 2nd round pick (45th overall, Paul Richardson), 2014 4th round pick (111th overall subsequently traded, Russell Bodine) and 2014 7th round pick (227th overall, Kiero Small). Detroit Lions received 2014 2nd round pick (40th overall, Kyle Van Noy) and 2014 5th round pick (146th overall subsequently traded, Devin Street). The final review favors Detroit Lions because that return produced stronger long-term football value.
New England Patriots Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Detroit traded Kyle Van Noy and a 2017 seventh-round pick to New England for a 2017 sixth-rounder that became Brad Kaaya. Van Noy quickly found a larger role in the Patriots defense, became a multi-year starter and contributed to championship teams. Kaaya never became a Detroit solution, and the Lions received essentially no lasting return. New England's acquisition became a textbook fit-and-development success.
