Head coach Mike Ditka traded every single one of the Saints’ 1999 draft picks and their 2000 first-rounder and third-rounder to move up to No. 5 overall and select the Heisman winner out of Texas. The Saints then went 20-28 over the next three seasons with Williams in their backfield before trading him to the Miami Dolphins ahead of the 2002 season, when he had the best year of his career.
