Trade 1 of 2

Dallas Cowboys and Miami Dolphins

Even Trade Tier: standard Confidence: high

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.

Assets Received

Miami Dolphins
  • Player Anthony Fasano
  • Player Akin Ayodele
Dallas Cowboys
  • Pick 2008 4th round pick (100th overall; later traded to Oakland, with the downstream return producing Tashard Choice and Orlando Scandrick)

Trade 2 of 2

Las Vegas Raiders and Dallas Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

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.

Dallas Cowboys
  • Pick 2008 4th round pick (104th overall; traded to Cleveland for picks 122 Tashard Choice and 155)
