Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 4
Atlanta acquired quarterback Jeff George from Indianapolis for two 1994 picks and a conditional 1996 first-rounder. George produced several prolific passing seasons for the Falcons, but Indianapolis eventually converted the future first into No. 19 and selected Hall of Fame receiver Marvin Harrison. The Colts' return, especially Harrison, overwhelms Atlanta's shorter quarterback payoff.
Trade 2 of 4
Indianapolis moved into the fifth overall position in the 1994 draft and selected linebacker Trev Alberts. Alberts played only 29 NFL games and recorded four sacks before injuries ended his career. The Rams controlled the outgoing draft position and later moved the selection again, preserving additional value rather than directly selecting the player who ultimately went at that slot.
Trade 3 of 4
San Francisco moved from No. 15 to No. 7 in the 1994 first round and used the higher pick on defensive tackle Bryant Young, while the Rams collected No. 15 plus second- and third-round selections. Wayne Gandy became a long-term starter, but Young developed into a Hall of Fame cornerstone, giving San Francisco the stronger return despite the Rams' useful volume.
Trade 4 of 4
San Francisco traded linebacker Bill Romanowski to Philadelphia during the 1994 draft for the Eagles' third-round pick at No. 100 and sixth-round pick at No. 190. The 49ers immediately reused both selections in separate draft-day packages, with No. 100 helping them move up for Bryant Young and No. 190 helping them move up for Kevin Mitchell. The picks became useful transaction capital rather than direct selections.
