Miami Dolphins and Washington Commanders
Miami acquired quarterback Sage Rosenfels from Washington in August 2002 for a 2003 seventh-round pick. Rosenfels served primarily as a reserve for the Dolphins and did not produce major statistics there, but he remained with the club for four seasons before later becoming a more experienced NFL backup and spot starter. Washington used the acquired late pick on Gibran Hamdan, who did not record meaningful NFL playing time. Miami gets the modest edge.

Houston Texans and Minnesota Vikings
Minnesota acquired quarterback Sage Rosenfels from Houston for the 122nd pick in the 2009 draft. The Texans used that fourth-round selection on tight end Anthony Hill, who played five games for Houston as a rookie. Rosenfels never took a regular-season snap for Minnesota, leaving Houston with the slightly better direct return.

Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants
Minnesota sent Sage Rosenfels and Darius Reynaud to New York for a 2011 fifth-round pick plus a conditional 2012 choice that was not exercised. The Vikings later traded the fifth-rounder to Cleveland for two sixth-rounders, producing DeMarcus Love and Mistral Raymond; Raymond made 10 starts in Minnesota. Rosenfels served as Eli Manning’s backup and Reynaud handled returns briefly, so Minnesota’s draft return wins narrowly.
Assets Received
Minnesota Vikings
- Pick 2011 5th round pick (150th overall subsequently traded, Jason Pinkston)
New York Giants
