Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 3
Miami acquired tight end Anthony Fasano and linebacker Akin Ayodele from Dallas for the 100th pick in the 2008 draft. Fasano became a productive five-year Dolphin, while Ayodele started for two seasons. Dallas repeatedly moved the incoming pick and ultimately turned the chain into Tashard Choice and Orlando Scandrick, with Scandrick becoming a nine-year Cowboy. Both organizations extracted substantial, durable value from very different paths.
Trade 2 of 3
Dallas turned the 104th pick into two selections, No. 122 and No. 155, and used the first on running back Tashard Choice. Cleveland used No. 104 on linebacker Beau Bell. Choice supplied several useful seasons as a reserve runner and spot starter, while Bell played only briefly for the Browns. The extra fifth-round asset never became a major Dallas piece, but the Cowboys still received the stronger practical return.
Trade 3 of 3
Oakland moved up four spots for safety Tyvon Branch, sending Dallas picks No. 104 and No. 213. Branch became a long-term Raiders starter with four consecutive seasons of at least 94 tackles. Dallas transformed the incoming choices into Tashard Choice and Orlando Scandrick; Scandrick played nine seasons for the Cowboys and became a regular starter. Both sides did extremely well, but Dallas created greater combined value.
