Minnesota Vikings and New England Patriots
New England Patriots Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Minnesota reunited Randy Moss with Brett Favre in a win-now move, sending New England a 2011 third-round pick while receiving Moss and a 2012 seventh-rounder. The reunion lasted only four games: Moss caught 13 passes for 174 yards and two touchdowns before the Vikings waived him. New England used pick No. 74 on Ryan Mallett and avoided losing Moss for nothing after the season. The Patriots clearly won despite modest production from Mallett.
Houston Texans come out ahead in this trade. The final grade profile (New England Patriots C+, Houston Texans B) supports the existing verdict and gives the winning side the cleaner value result.
