Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Seattle sold Rick Mirer after four uneven seasons and received Chicago’s 11th overall pick in the 1997 draft, while sending back Mirer and a fourth-rounder. That was exceptional value for a quarterback whose early promise had faded. The Seahawks later used the first-round asset in further draft maneuvering, while Mirer lasted only one season in Chicago. Moving him before his market disappeared made this a decisive Seattle win.
Trade 2 of 2
Green Bay Packers received 2000 6th round pick (185th overall subsequently traded, Tim Watson) in the deal with New York Jets. Green Bay later included the acquired sixth-round asset with Fred Vinson in the trade for Ahman Green. Green became a franchise-level Packers running back and one of the most productive players tied to this batch. That outcome supports a A for Green Bay Packers. The Green Bay Packers Win verdict weighs documented games, starts, production and connected draft value.
