Chicago Bears and Seattle Seahawks
Seattle Seahawks Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Seattle moved up from No. 68 to No. 49 in 2009 and landed center Max Unger, who became a long-term starter, a first-team All-Pro and a Super Bowl champion with the Seahawks. Chicago received Jarron Gilbert and Henry Melton; Melton developed into a productive interior defender and a Pro Bowler, giving the Bears real value even though Unger became the best player in the exchange.
New Orleans Saints Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
New Orleans turned Jimmy Graham and a fourth-round pick into center Max Unger and the No. 31 selection, used on Stephone Anthony. Seattle still got three productive seasons from Graham, including two double-digit or near-double-digit touchdown campaigns, and the acquired fourth-rounder became part of the package used to move up for Tyler Lockett. Unger's four seasons anchoring the Saints' line give New Orleans the stronger long-term return.
