Logan Mankins was drafted by the Patriots a couple months after they won Super Bowl XXXVIII, and was traded due to a contract dispute just before training camp for the 2014 season started; that year New England went on to beat Seattle. Also, Wes Welker went a combined 0-3 in Super Bowls with New England and Denver. Those two teams are 4-1 since he left.

I’m sure watercooler discussion continues in Detroit about letting Verlander get away in 2017 — and him subsequently helping the Astros win the World Series. And now, although a few years later, Scherzer makes it to the WS. Sheesh.
