Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles

Even Tier: major Confidence: high

The quarterback swap produced more long-term value than either starter's 2015 season suggests. Philadelphia got a full season from Sam Bradford, then traded him to Minnesota in 2016 for a first-round pick and additional draft value. St. Louis received Nick Foles, Andrew Donnal and a 2016 second-rounder; Foles failed, but that second-round pick became a core piece of the package used to move to No. 1 for Jared Goff. Both teams extracted major downstream value.

Assets Received

Los Angeles Rams
  • Player Nick Foles
  • Pick 2015 4th round pick (119th overall, Andrew Donnal)
  • Pick 2016 2nd round pick (43rd overall subsequently traded, Austin Johnson)
Philadelphia Eagles

Trade 2 of 2

Minnesota Vikings and Philadelphia Eagles

Philadelphia Eagles Win Tier: landmark Confidence: high

Minnesota acquired Sam Bradford after Teddy Bridgewater's catastrophic knee injury, sending Philadelphia a first-round pick and a fourth-round pick. Bradford delivered a strong 2016 season but could not provide durable long-term value. The Eagles used the picks on Derek Barnett and Josh Sweat, two important defenders in the franchise's championship era.

Assets Received

Minnesota Vikings
  • Player Sam Bradford
Philadelphia Eagles
  • Pick 2017 1st round pick (14th overall, Derek Barnett)
  • Pick 2018 4th round pick (130th overall, Josh Sweat)
