There have been a few trades in the history of the NFL that have changed the franchises involved forever. Here is the best trade ever made by each NFL team.
One great trade can change the course of an NFL franchise forever. Conversely, one incredibly dumb trade can set a franchise back years. Whether it’s a franchise quarterback or a slew of draft picks going from one team to another, some trades will always be remembered.
Throughout history, teams have been made up mostly of players they never drafted. The Panthers’ star tight end was picked by the Chicago Bears, and went to Carolina via trade. Everywhere you look on the football field, you can see players who arrive at their teams via trade.
In some cases, those trades have an impact that last long after the player has hung up his cleats for good. In this slideshow, we take a look at the single greatest trade for every team in the NFL. The list includes Hall of Famers, franchise players and leaders who went on to take their new organization to the Super Bowl.
These trades not only show how great one team made out, but also how much their trade partners lost. The ramifications of some of these trades can still be felt today, while some teams have moved on.
