Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Chicago Bears Win Tier: major Confidence: high

Tampa Bay traded its 1983 first-round pick to Chicago for the 1982 second-round selection used on defensive end Booker Reese. Reese played only 24 games for the Buccaneers and 35 in his NFL career. Chicago later used Tampa Bay's No. 18 pick on Willie Gault, a productive receiver and member of the 1985 championship team. The Bears won overwhelmingly.

Los Angeles Rams and Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Los Angeles Rams Win Tier: minor Confidence: high

Los Angeles Rams received Booker Reese in the deal with Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Reese played nine Rams games in 1984 and two more in 1985 without a start. Los Angeles received some reserve-line service but little production or lineup impact. That outcome supports a C+ for Los Angeles Rams. The Los Angeles Rams Win verdict weighs documented games, starts, production and connected draft value.
