With a lot of trades going on before the draft and during the draft... like DE Jared Allen sent to the Vikings... or CB Pacman Jones to the Cowboys... here is a list of the Top 10 Draft Trades in NFL history that I found on nfl.com.
1.- 1985: 49ers trade up for Jerry Rice
Many dismissed Rice before the 1985 draft, but Bill Walsh traded picks with New England to move up and get the young phenom.
2.- 1999: Rams trade 2 picks for Marshall Faulk
The Rams traded second- and fifth-round picks to the Colts for Faulk, and went on to win Super Bowl XXXIV with the "Greatest Show on Turf".
3.- 1987: 49ers trade 2 picks for Steve Young
Bill Walsh sent second- and fourth-round picks to Tampa Bay and the 49ers received a valuable successor to Joe Montana in Young.
4.- 1999: Saints trade 8 picks for Ricky Williams
New Orleans sent eight draft picks to Washington in order to move up to the fifth overall pick and take the Texas running back.
5.- 1977: Dallas steals Tony Dorsett for four picks
The Seahawks traded the second overall pick to Dallas for four picks. The Cowboys proceeded to nab Dorsett and the Vince Lombardi Trophy.
6.- 2001: Michael Vick for LaDainian Tomlinson
The Falcons and Chargers swapped picks and players. Atlanta took Vick with the No. 1 overall pick, while San Diego got Tomlinson with the fifth.
7.- 1990: Colts trade 4 players for Jeff George
The Colts traded four players to the Falcons, including WR Andre Rison in order to select the Illinois quarterback.
8.- 1970: Dolphins deal for Paul Warfield
The Dolphins traded their first overall pick for one of the league's best receivers and went on to win the Super Bowl two seasons later.
9.- 1996: Steelers trade 2 picks for Jerome Bettis
The Steelers sent two picks to the Rams and helped Bettis establish himself as "The Bus" in Pittsburgh's smash-mouth offense.
10.- 2004: Eli Manning for Philip Rivers
The Chargers took Manning with the top overall choice and traded him to the Giants for Rivers (the fourth overall selection) and three draft picks.
