Even Trade Tier: standard Confidence: high

Tampa Bay traded guard Sean Farrell to New England on February 4, 1987 for the Patriots' second-, seventh-, and ninth-round selections. The Buccaneers used those picks on Don Smith, Harry Swayne, and Greg Davis. Farrell then started regularly for New England for three seasons, while Tampa Bay's three-player return produced mixed results. The final value lands close to even.
