→ Seattle Seahawks Win
Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Seattle traded WR Joey Galloway to Dallas for back-to-back first-round picks. The 2000 pick became RB Shaun Alexander, the 2005 NFL MVP and franchise rushing leader, while the 2001 pick was later moved in the Koren Robinson chain. Dallas paid premium value for a receiver who tore his ACL in Week 1 of his Cowboys career. The Galloway return became a franchise-altering pick chain. Dallas paid a massive price for a veteran receiver who lost his first Cowboys season to injury, while Seattle turned one of the picks into Shaun Alexander, the NFL's 2005 MVP and the league's single-season rushing-touchdown record holder. Winner: Seattle Seahawks.
Assets Received
- Pick 2000 1st round pick (19th overall, Shaun Alexander)
- Pick 2001 1st round pick (7th overall subsequently traded, Andre Carter)
Trade Analysis
Cowboys got Galloway who missed most of 2000 with ACL tear, then produced 3 solid seasons but never justified two first-rounders.
