Indianapolis Colts and Tennessee Titans
Baltimore sent center Bill Curry to Houston for guard Tom Regner and the 1973 third-round pick used on fullback Bill Olds. Curry's Oilers stint ended after only four games in 1973, while Olds developed into a useful Colts starter and offensive contributor, including 14 starts in 1975. Regner added little in Baltimore, but the pick outcome created enough value for a clear Colts win.

Green Bay Packers and Los Angeles Rams
Green Bay acquired veteran center Bill Curry for a conditional future draft choice, but Curry's injury problems led him to retire during the 1975 preseason without appearing in a Packers regular-season game that year. The Rams did not receive a usable pick because the condition was not triggered. With zero realized on-field return on either side, C grades for both teams and an Even Trade verdict fit the realized outcome.
