Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 3
St. Louis acquired defensive lineman Fred Heron from Green Bay in the 1966 deal and, after the related 1967 pick settlement, also received Green Bay’s fourth-round selection at No. 105. Heron became a seven-season Cardinal, playing 79 games with 56 starts. The Cardinals gave up the 1968 third-round pick that became Bill Stevens, making the veteran-quality player return the decisive piece.
Trade 2 of 3
St. Louis sent its 1968 third-round pick to Green Bay and received two fourth-round choices in the 1967 draft. The Cardinals gained two immediate selections and used them on Mike Barnes and Andy Bowling. Green Bay received the nominally higher future pick, but the player ultimately selected there, Billy Stevens, appeared in only three NFL games, keeping the practical returns on both sides modest.
Trade 3 of 3
Atlanta moved linebacker Andy Bowling to Detroit during the 1968 preseason for a future draft choice, but the surviving public draft ledgers do not isolate the exact 1969 selection. Bowling had played six games for the Falcons in 1967 and did not appear in a regular-season game for Detroit. The legacy row is corrected to leave Atlanta's pick unidentified instead of choosing between Wally Oyler and Ted Cottrell.
