New York Jets and Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh moved down from No. 16 to No. 19, added two later picks, and selected Casey Hampton. Hampton became a five-time Pro Bowler and the anchor of two Super Bowl-winning defenses. The Jets selected Santana Moss, who became a productive receiver and later returned trade value, but Pittsburgh acquired the more important player while adding extra capital.

New York Jets and Washington Commanders
The Jets reacquired Laveranues Coles by sending Santana Moss to Washington in a straight receiver swap. Coles immediately returned to a productive role in New York and remained a dependable starter for four seasons. Moss, however, delivered a franchise-record 1,483-yard debut season, became a Pro Bowler and stayed in Washington for a decade, creating substantially more long-term value.
