Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 3
Minnesota moved back into the first round for Teddy Bridgewater, sending Seattle picks No. 40 and No. 108. Bridgewater became the Vikings' starter, made the Pro Bowl after the 2015 season and helped produce an NFC North title before a catastrophic knee injury changed his trajectory. Seattle traded No. 40 again and collected additional selections while using No. 108 on Cassius Marsh. Both sides got useful value, with Minnesota's starting-quarterback payoff providing the stronger peak.
Trade 2 of 3
New Orleans acquired Teddy Bridgewater and a 2019 sixth-round pick from the Jets for a 2019 third-rounder. Bridgewater became Drew Brees' backup and delivered the trade's defining value in 2019, going 5-0 as the starter while Brees recovered from a thumb injury. The Saints also retained the sixth-round selection, while New York later used the incoming third-round capital in another draft-day move.
Trade 3 of 3
Denver acquired quarterback Teddy Bridgewater from Carolina for a 2021 sixth-round pick, with the Panthers also absorbing part of his salary. Bridgewater became the Broncos' primary starter in 2021 and delivered credible veteran quarterback play at a minimal acquisition cost. Carolina recovered only a late pick after moving on from him. Denver did not find a permanent solution, but the one-season return easily justified the price.
