Not talking ones that are clearly lopsided from the start, but trades that seemed fairly even at the time but turned out completely in your favor.
Mine is from right after the 2004 season:
Roy Williams had 54 catches, 817 yds 8 TDs as a rookie
Larry Fitzgerald had 58 catches, 780 yards, 8 TDs as a rookie
Both were 1st rounds picks and both produced like future stars.
I traded Roy straight up for Larry, and based on the rookie stats seemed about as even as they come at the time; I thought both were going to be dominant WRs for the next decade or so. One owner who wasn't involved thought I'd made a horrible decision as he viewed Roy as the next TO (he knew Charles Rodgers was a bust) and was convinced Fitz would be playing second fiddle to Anquan Boldin.
Roy had one really good year in 2006 and Fitz played his way into a 1st ballot HOF career that led me to numerous playoff runs and a couple of titles.
What's yours?
