Transaction Snapshot
Trade 1 of 1
New Orleans ended the Archie Manning era by sending its longtime quarterback to Houston for offensive tackle Leon Gray. Gray was already an accomplished offensive lineman and quickly gave the Saints a Pro Bowl season in 1983, while Manning's Oilers stay lasted only two games. The combination of immediate line quality and greater staying power makes New Orleans the clear winner.
