Trade 2 of 2
New England acquired Aqib Talib and 2013 pick No. 226 from Tampa Bay for 2013 pick No. 126. Talib immediately upgraded the Patriots' secondary, returned in 2013, made the Pro Bowl and helped New England reach consecutive AFC title games. Tampa Bay used No. 126 on William Gholston, who became a remarkably durable Buccaneers defensive lineman and later a Super Bowl champion. Elite short-term impact versus exceptional longevity makes this even.
