Chicago Bears and Indianapolis Colts
Chicago Bears Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Chicago acquired the NFL rights to Greg Latta and Noah Jackson in two same-day deals with Baltimore, while also receiving the Colts’ 1976 seventh-round selection. Latta played five seasons for Chicago and Jackson became a long-term starting guard. Baltimore received four selections that produced Dave Pear, Steve Joachim, Derrel Luce and Sanders Shiver, making this a productive exchange for both clubs but a slight Bears win.
Miami Dolphins Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Miami acquired defensive back Neal Colzie from the Raiders in March 1979 for a third-round selection, No. 80. Colzie immediately started all 16 games for the Dolphins and intercepted five passes in his lone Miami season. The Raiders retained useful draft value and later combined No. 80 with another pick in the deal for defensive lineman Dave Pear, so their return was not empty. Colzie's direct full-season impact gives Miami a narrow, defensible edge.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Oakland acquired defensive tackle Dave Pear for second- and third-round picks. Pear started 19 games in two seasons with the Raiders and was part of the Super Bowl XV championship roster, so the club received meaningful veteran value. His stay was brief, though, and Tampa Bay turned the primary pick into a four-year starting guard who helped its first division champion.
