Other trades for No. 10
2011 – The Jacksonville Jaguars traded their first and second-round picks (16 and 49) to Washington to move up and select QB Blaine Gabbert. Washington added DE Ryan Kerrigan at 16. The 49th pick got traded, then Washington traded what they got for No. 49 not once but twice and eventually took three players, the best of which was WR Leonard Hankerson.
2008 – The New England Patriots traded No. 7 and No. 164 to the New Orleans Saints for No. 10 and 78. The Saints selected DT Sedrick Ellis at No. 7, the Patriots tabbed LB Jerod Mayo at 10. New Orleans won the deal by selecting OG Carl Nicks at 164 in the fifth round, who was an All-Pro before injuries cut his career short. New England burned the third-rounder on LB Shawn Crable, who didn’t even make the team in his second season.
2007 – Houston traded No. 8 and No. 39 in 2007 and a 2008 second-rounder to Atlanta for No. 10 and veteran QB Matt Schaub. The Falcons selected DE Jamaal Anderson (whiff) and OG Justin Blalock (nice hit) with the picks in 2007. The Texans swung and missed at No. 10 with young DT Amobi Okoye. Atlanta packaged the ’08 2nd-rounder to move up and draft OT Sam Baker in the first that year.
2001 – The Packers traded No. 17 and QB Matt Hasselbeck to the Seahawks for No. 10. Green Bay drafted Jamal Reynolds, who quietly is one of the bigger busts of his era. Reynolds played sparingly in three seasons, recording just 18 tackles. Astute Browns fans might remember Reynolds from the 2004 preseason, when he tried and failed to make it in Cleveland.
1997 – A large swap of picks centered around New Orleans and Oakland, which moved from 10 to No. 2 to draft Darrell Russell. New Orleans took OL Chris Naeole. The Saints made a total of six other trades off the picks acquired. Chase down that rabbit hole if you dare…
