Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 3
Oakland sent James McAlister to Philadelphia for a future second-round pick, then used the No. 35 selection in 1977 on defensive back Mike Davis. McAlister gave the Eagles useful short-term offense, but Davis played 115 games for the Raiders and became a durable secondary contributor during a championship era. The longer, more valuable return gives Oakland the win without making Philadelphia's side a total miss.
Trade 2 of 3
Minnesota acquired Warren Moon for a 1994 fourth-round pick and a 1995 third-round pick, a modest price for a proven Hall of Fame-caliber quarterback. Moon immediately gave the Vikings two high-level seasons, set franchise passing records, and reached the Pro Bowl in 1994 and 1995. For a team built to contend, converting two mid-round selections into that level of quarterback play was an excellent short-term use of draft capital.
Trade 3 of 3
Denver moved up from No. 63 to No. 56 in the 2014 second round, also receiving No. 242, while San Francisco collected Nos. 63 and 171 plus a 2015 fourth-rounder. Denver selected Cody Latimer and Corey Nelson. The 49ers quickly repackaged Nos. 63 and 171 to move to No. 57 for Carlos Hyde and later used the future fourth on Mike Davis. San Francisco created the stronger overall value.
