Arizona Cardinals and New York Jets

New York Jets Win Tier: major Confidence: high

The Jets moved from No. 3 to No. 4 in the 1993 draft, receiving running back Johnny Johnson while Arizona moved up for Garrison Hearst. New York used No. 4 on linebacker Marvin Jones, who became a long-time Jets starter, and Johnson immediately supplied offensive production. Hearst later became a Pro Bowler, but much of his best work came after Arizona, giving the Jets the stronger realized return.

Assets Received

New York Jets
  • Player Johnny Johnson (a)
  • Pick 1993 first round pick (#4-Marvin Jones (Maurice))
Arizona Cardinals
  • Pick 1993 first round pick (#3-Garrison Hearst)

Trade 2 of 2

Cincinnati Bengals and New England Patriots

Cincinnati Bengals Win Tier: major Confidence: high

Cincinnati traded veteran receiver Chad Johnson to New England in 2011 for fifth- and sixth-round picks that became Marvin Jones and Cobi Hamilton. Johnson caught only 15 passes for 276 yards and one touchdown in his lone Patriots season before being released. Jones developed into a productive starting receiver for Cincinnati and later enjoyed a long NFL career. The Bengals turned an aging star into a younger impact player and won decisively.

Assets Received

Cincinnati Bengals
  • Pick 2012 5th round pick (166th overall, Marvin Jones)
  • Pick 2013 6th round pick (197th overall, Cobi Hamilton)
New England Patriots
  • Player Chad Johnson
