Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 3
Atlanta moved from No. 34 to No. 21 in the 2008 draft and received picks 84 and 154, turning the package into Sam Baker, Harry Douglas and Kroy Biermann. Washington received picks 34, 48 and 103, highlighted by tight end Fred Davis but undermined by the miss on Devin Thomas. Atlanta landed three meaningful contributors and clearly extracted more long-term value.
Trade 2 of 3
Tennessee moved up to No. 103 for William Hayes, who played 48 Titans games, started 12 and recorded eight sacks from 2008-11. Washington got Justin Tryon at No. 124, who played 29 games with two starts, then paired No. 157 with another seventh-rounder to obtain Durant Brooks and Kareem Moore. Moore became the best Washington downstream result with 42 games and 13 starts, but No. 157 was only half of that move. The concrete returns balance at B/B.
Trade 3 of 3
Miami moved down only 17 draft slots, sending No. 206 to Los Angeles for veteran defensive end William Hayes and No. 223. Hayes gave the Dolphins useful rotational work across 13 games over two seasons, while Miami later recycled No. 223 into additional draft capital. The Rams used No. 206 on Sam Rogers, whose NFL impact was minimal, leaving Miami with the better return.
