Philadelphia received the 2011 sixth-round asset that became No. 184 and later used that exact asset in the transaction for guard Reggie Wells. Wells appeared in eight Eagles games and made one start in 2010. The return was modest, but Philadelphia successfully converted the acquired draft value into usable regular-season offensive-line depth rather than letting the asset disappear without contribution.

Trade Analysis
The Exchange
On 2010-03-09, Philadelphia Eagles received 2011 6th round pick (184th overall; traded to Arizona for G Reggie Wells; Arizona later selected David Carter at 184), while Tampa Bay Buccaneers received Reggie Brown. The evaluation follows the value actually created by the consideration each club controlled, while later transactions involving an acquired pick are treated as separate provenance rather than automatically credited back to this deal.
Philadelphia Eagles Return
Philadelphia received the 2011 sixth-round asset that became No. 184 and later used that exact asset in the transaction for guard Reggie Wells. Wells appeared in eight Eagles games and made one start in 2010. The return was modest, but Philadelphia successfully converted the acquired draft value into usable regular-season offensive-line depth rather than letting the asset disappear without contribution.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Return
Tampa Bay acquired wide receiver Reggie Brown but released him on September 6, before the 2010 regular season began. Brown therefore produced no regular-season game value for the Buccaneers from this trade. Even though Philadelphia's eventual return was limited, Tampa Bay's inability to carry Brown into the season leaves the Buccaneers clearly behind in realized value.
Value in Hindsight
Philadelphia received the 2011 sixth-round pick that became No. 184 and later used that exact asset to acquire guard Reggie Wells. Wells played eight Eagles games with one start in 2010. Tampa Bay acquired Reggie Brown but released him on September 6, before the regular season. The Eagles therefore turned the trade into modest usable roster value while Tampa Bay realized no regular-season return from Brown. The comparison is therefore based on direct club service, starting responsibility, production, and the practical value of any retained draft capital, without overstating downstream moves that required additional consideration.
Final Verdict
Philadelphia Eagles receives a C+ and Tampa Bay Buccaneers receives a D. The verdict is Philadelphia Eagles Win. The grade spread reflects the modest scale of the original transaction while still recognizing which side produced the stronger realized football return.
