New Orleans Saints and Washington Commanders

Washington Commanders Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Washington moved up in the 2004 third round for tight end Chris Cooley and also received a fifth-round pick, while New Orleans acquired a fifth-rounder that became Rodney Leisle plus Washington's 2005 second-round pick, used on Josh Bullocks. Bullocks became a multi-year starter, so the Saints received real value. Cooley developed into a two-time Pro Bowler and one of Washington's most productive tight ends, giving Washington the better return.

  • Pick 2004 3rd round pick (81st overall, Chris Cooley)
