Atlanta Falcons and Washington Commanders
Atlanta acquired Joe Washington plus the selections that became Scott Bergold and first-round defensive end Tim Green, while sending Washington the picks that produced Tory Nixon, Markus Koch and Kent Hagood. Joe Washington contributed for one Falcons season, but Green became the most durable Atlanta piece. The combined return gives the Falcons a modest but meaningful edge.
