Jacksonville received the 2011 fourth-round choice at No. 121 and used it on Chris Prosinski. Prosinski ultimately played more games and remained with the Jaguars longer than Matt Tennant did with New Orleans, giving Jacksonville a modest but meaningful edge.

Trade Analysis

The Exchange

On 2010-04-24, Jacksonville Jaguars and New Orleans Saints completed this exchange. Jacksonville Jaguars received 2011 4th round pick (121st overall, Chris Prosinski), while New Orleans Saints received 2010 5th round pick (158th overall, Matt Tennant). Historical team, draft, and player records support that package and provide enough career context to compare what each side actually gained.

Jacksonville Jaguars Return

Jacksonville received the 2011 fourth-round choice at No. 121 and used it on Chris Prosinski. Prosinski ultimately played more games and remained with the Jaguars longer than Matt Tennant did with New Orleans, giving Jacksonville a modest but meaningful edge. The B- grade reflects that realized football value and the complete supported package, while the overall verdict is Jacksonville Jaguars Win.

New Orleans Saints Return

New Orleans received the 2010 fifth-round choice at No. 158 and used it on Matt Tennant. Tennant provided some roster value, but his Saints tenure was shorter and less substantial than the service Prosinski later supplied to Jacksonville. The C grade reflects that realized football value and the complete supported package, while the overall verdict is Jacksonville Jaguars Win.

Value in Hindsight

The decisive difference is realized value rather than the nominal size of the package. Jacksonville Jaguars turned its return into the stronger on-field outcome, while New Orleans Saints received less durable or less productive value. That gap supports the Jacksonville Jaguars Win conclusion and the B- versus C grading split.

Final Verdict

The final call is Jacksonville Jaguars Win. Jacksonville Jaguars earns a B-, and New Orleans Saints earns a C. Those grades weigh the documented assets, the length and quality of the resulting contributions, and the practical value each club actually realized after the exchange.
