Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Pittsburgh traded running back Charlie Davis to St. Louis for a 1976 sixth-round pick that became defensive lineman Gary Dunn. Dunn spent 12 seasons with the Steelers, played 146 games and made 105 starts, an exceptional return from pick No. 159. The Cardinals also received real value from Davis, who started 12 games in 1975 and remained with the club for multiple seasons. Pittsburgh wins, but St. Louis deserves meaningful credit.
Trade 2 of 2
Cincinnati sent running back Charlie Davis to expansion Tampa Bay for a future fourth-round choice, which became No. 85 Rick Walker in 1977. Walker developed into a long NFL career and later became a regular starter in Washington, while Davis' Tampa Bay stay lasted only the 1976 season. The Bengals clearly obtained the more durable asset.
