Cleveland Browns and Miami Dolphins
Miami Dolphins Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Miami acquired linebacker Bob Matheson from Cleveland for a 1972 second-round selection that became No. 51 overall and Lester Sims. Matheson remained with the Dolphins through the decade, playing a specialized role on championship defenses and becoming associated with Miami's famed 53 defense. Cleveland's draft return never produced comparable value. A second-rounder was a meaningful price, but Miami's sustained payoff makes this a clear Dolphins win.
