Transaction Snapshot
Trade 1 of 1
Detroit sent the 78th and 114th picks to the Giants to move up to No. 61 for defensive tackle Shaun Rogers. Rogers became a three-time Pro Bowler, played 163 career games and recorded 37.5 sacks. New York selected cornerback Will Peterson and defensive end Cedric Scott. Peterson developed into a useful long-term defensive back, but Rogers’ peak impact and interior dominance gave Detroit the stronger return.
