5. Another record that this draft set was most trades. Which of the following teams was not involved in a first round trade?

Green Bay stayed put and drafted Ahmad Carroll. Carroll was a cornerback from Arkansas. He earned the nickname "Batman" for some of his acrobatic plays.

Indianapolis traded out of the first round and picked up more later picks.
