Atlanta Falcons and Minnesota Vikings
Atlanta sent running back Billy Harris to Minnesota for a draft choice whose exact selection remains unidentified. Harris appeared in 13 games for the Vikings in 1969 but carried only six times for 13 yards and caught two passes for 13 more. Minnesota received some roster depth, but the small offensive contribution does not create meaningful separation from Atlanta's unresolved draft asset.
