Kansas City Chiefs and New England Patriots
New England Patriots Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Kansas City acquired Matt Cassel and Mike Vrabel from New England for the 34th pick in the 2009 draft. Cassel became a Pro Bowler while leading the 2010 Chiefs to an AFC West title, and Vrabel supplied two seasons of veteran leadership. New England used No. 34 on Patrick Chung, who became a long-term defensive starter and three-time Super Bowl champion with the Patriots, giving New England the stronger lasting return.
