Trade 1 of 3

Arizona Cardinals and Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Tampa Bay acquired running back Thomas Jones from Arizona in June 2003 for wide receiver Marquise Walker. Jones rushed for 627 yards at 4.6 yards per carry in his lone Buccaneers season, then went on to a long, productive career elsewhere. Walker never played a regular-season game for Arizona. Tampa Bay therefore received meaningful immediate production for a player who produced no Cardinals return, making the Buccaneers the clear winner.

Trade 2 of 3

New York Jets and Washington Commanders

New York Jets Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Washington moved up to No. 35 in the 2006 draft for linebacker Rocky McIntosh, sending the Jets picks 53 and 189 plus a 2007 second-rounder. New York later used those pieces in multiple moves: No. 53 helped facilitate the Kellen Clemens trade-up, No. 189 became Drew Coleman after more movement, and the 2007 pick helped bring Thomas Jones.

Assets Received

New York Jets
  • Pick 2006 2nd round pick (53rd overall, later traded to Dallas in the move for Kellen Clemens)
  • Pick 2006 6th round pick (189th overall, later reacquired and used on Drew Coleman)
  • Pick 2007 2nd round pick (37th overall, later traded to Chicago in the Thomas Jones deal)
Washington Commanders
  • Pick 2006 2nd round pick (35th overall, Rocky McIntosh)

Trade 3 of 3

Chicago Bears and New York Jets

New York Jets Win Tier: major Confidence: high

The Jets acquired running back Thomas Jones and the 63rd pick from Chicago for the 37th pick, effectively moving down 26 spots in Round 2 to add a proven starter. Jones then rushed for more than 1,100 yards in each of his three Jets seasons and led the AFC with 1,312 yards in 2008. New York later used No. 63 as part of the move for David Harris, multiplying the deal's value.

Assets Received

New York Jets
  • Player Thomas Jones
  • Pick 2007 2nd round pick (63rd overall, later included in the David Harris trade)
Chicago Bears
  • Pick 2007 2nd round pick (37th overall, later traded to San Diego in the Eric Weddle deal)
