Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Arizona acquired Chandler Jones from New England for guard Jonathan Cooper and the 61st pick in the 2016 draft. Jones became one of the Cardinals' best pass rushers, recording 71.5 sacks in six seasons. New England later traded the second-rounder and turned the return into picks used on Joe Thuney and Malcolm Mitchell, creating substantial value of its own.
Trade 2 of 2
New Orleans traded picks No. 78 and 112 to New England for No. 61 and selected safety Vonn Bell. Bell immediately became a major defensive contributor, appearing in 61 games with 45 starts over four Saints seasons. The move worked. It simply ran into an exceptional Patriots return, because New England turned the two selections into Joe Thuney and Malcolm Mitchell.
