New Orleans Saints and Washington Commanders

Washington Commanders Win Tier: landmark Confidence: high

The Ricky Williams trade became the defining cautionary tale of Mike Ditka's Saints tenure. New Orleans sent an enormous draft package to Washington for the right to select Williams fifth overall. Williams was talented, but the cost was overwhelming. Washington turned one pick into a roster-building haul and won the value side decisively. This is a priority indexing page because the Ricky Williams-Mike Ditka trade is one of the most famous draft overpays in NFL history.
