Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
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.
Trade 2 of 2
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.
