Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Dallas acquired the rights to quarterback Drew Henson from Houston in March 2004, sending the Texans a 2005 third-round pick that became No. 73. Henson never developed into the Cowboys’ long-term answer, while Houston used the pick on running back Vernand Morency. Morency was not a star, but the Texans received tangible draft value for a player who never appeared for them, making Houston the winner.
Trade 2 of 2
Green Bay swapped Samkon Gado for Vernand Morency after deciding Morency's one-cut style better fit its zone-running system. Morency rewarded the Packers with 421 rushing yards at 4.6 yards per carry in 2006 and remained part of the backfield in 2007. Gado gave Houston useful depth but only 263 rushing yards across two seasons, leaving Green Bay with the better direct return.
