Trade 1 of 2

Indianapolis Colts and Philadelphia Eagles

Philadelphia Eagles Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Indianapolis gave Philadelphia a 2006 fourth-round pick to acquire the 148th selection in 2005 and draft defensive end Jonathan Welsh. Welsh appeared in only six games for the Colts. Philadelphia carried the future fourth into the 2006 draft and used it in a sequence of trades that helped create more roster value, giving the Eagles the better return from a patient move.

Assets Received

Indianapolis Colts
  • Pick 2005 5th round pick (148th overall, Jonathan Welsh)
Philadelphia Eagles
  • Pick 2006 4th round pick (127th overall, later traded; Ray Edwards selected)

Trade 2 of 2

Minnesota Vikings and Philadelphia Eagles

Minnesota Vikings Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Minnesota sent picks 115 and 185 to Philadelphia for guard Artis Hicks and pick 127, which became defensive end Ray Edwards. The Eagles immediately moved the two incoming selections to Green Bay for pick 109, used on Jason Avant. Both organizations extracted real value, but Minnesota received two useful players directly, including the best defensive player in the chain, while Philadelphia's downstream conversion keeps this from being a lopsided result.

Assets Received

Minnesota Vikings
  • Player Artis Hicks
  • Pick 2006 4th round pick (127th overall, Ray Edwards)
Philadelphia Eagles
  • Pick 2006 4th round pick (115th overall subsequently traded, Will Blackmon)
  • Pick 2006 6th round pick (185th overall subsequently traded, Tyrone Culver)
