During those 60 hours, the Legion made the following two trades, first to acquire his own player from his previous team, the Hawks:
Receive
Alexandre LeClair – WR
S5 Otters 1st round pick (#8)
Receive
Ricardo Sandoval – DT
Brian Wheat – WR
S5 Hawks 2nd round pick (#11)
S5 Hawks 5th round pick
Two birds with one stone here. Give up LeClair, who wanted to be traded, and get your own player (Sandoval). As the now-Legion/NOLA GM, I’m of the opinion that this trade was quite one-sided in the Hawks’ favor (even at the time I thought it was one-sided), and if I were them I’d be very pleased with it. The teams basically swapped active star players, and the Legion moved back 3 draft spots for an inactive WR and a throwaway draft pick.
With this trade, the Legion lost a 1st round pick which could have been used on Michael Tillman, an active LB, to help a bleeding Legion defense. The 2nd round pick that the Legion acquired would later be used on Fresh Booter, an active WR who has played a very important role in their offense so far. (Side note, the Hawks later traded that 1st round pick to the Otters who used it to get Tegan Atwell, CB)
From my skewed view of the Hawks' standpoint, this trade isn't that lopsided. We traded our S3 star DT Ricardo Sandoval for S1 star WR Alexandre LeClair. This is fairly close in value as Sandoval was 50% of our defensive line. We also got to move up 3 spots in the current draft. Not a huge jump considering we were strong armed into trading Sandoval. The 5th round pick was a throw away but Wheat has become an active WR albeit for the Yeti.
