Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
New York moved Joe Dawkins and Dave Simonson to Houston in August 1976 for the 1977 seventh-round pick used on Al Dixon and another undisclosed selection, possibly the 1978 choice used on Rich Martini. Dawkins contributed only a limited final NFL season for Houston, while Dixon gave the Giants several seasons of service. New York receives a B- to Houston's C-.
Trade 2 of 2
Philadelphia acquired veteran tight end Al Dixon from Kansas City for a 1985 sixth-round selection. Dixon played 10 games for the Eagles in 1983, made one start and caught four passes for 54 yards before being released in November. The contribution was modest and lasted only part of one season, but it was still measurable Eagles value. Kansas City's resulting draft choice did not produce a Chiefs regular-season player.
