New York Giants and Seattle Seahawks
Seattle sent the Giants a 2024 second-round pick and 2025 fifth for Leonard Williams, then re-signed him after the season. Williams has become a defensive centerpiece, recording four sacks in 10 games after the trade, 11 sacks in 2024 and seven more in 2025. New York used the picks on safety Tyler Nubin and lineman Marcus Mbow, who have combined for 27 starts. Both sides did well, but Williams’ sustained impact now gives Seattle the edge.
