Trade Analysis
What the Correct Package Was
Pittsburgh moved up to pick No. 112 in the 2007 draft for punter Daniel Sepulveda. Green Bay received pick No. 119 and pick No. 192. The Packers selected Allen Barbre at No. 119 and linebacker Desmond Bishop at No. 192. Mason Crosby was selected one spot later, No. 193, with a separate Green Bay choice. Distinguishing those two sixth-round picks is essential to the trade's history.
What Pittsburgh Received
Sepulveda became Pittsburgh's punter immediately and showed a strong leg when healthy. He contributed across several seasons and was part of a championship-era roster, but knee injuries repeatedly interrupted his career and limited his long-term availability. For a fourth-round specialist acquired through a move-up, the Steelers received useful but incomplete value.
What Green Bay Received
Barbre's Packers tenure was limited, but Bishop became the key asset. He developed from special-teams and reserve work into a starting inside linebacker and played a meaningful role during Green Bay's Super Bowl XLV championship season. His rise gave the Packers a much stronger return than the older record suggested when it incorrectly attached Crosby to the deal.
Why This Trade Still Matters
The correction actually makes the historical comparison cleaner. Green Bay did not receive a future all-time kicker through this transaction, but it did receive a championship-caliber linebacker plus another offensive-line prospect. Pittsburgh received a capable punter whose injuries prevented greater longevity.
Final Verdict
Green Bay Packers Win. Green Bay earns a B+ for Bishop's development and championship contribution. Pittsburgh receives a B- because Sepulveda was useful when available. The Packers win without needing the incorrect Crosby connection.
Bishop's development into a starter on a championship team supplied Green Bay the strongest long-term football return, while Sepulveda's useful punting tenure was repeatedly limited by injuries that reduced his availability.
