Chicago Bears and Cleveland Browns
Chicago Bears Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Chicago acquired future Hall of Fame defensive end Doug Atkins and safety Ken Gorgal from Cleveland before the 1955 season for third- and sixth-round picks in the 1956 draft. The Bears' own history identifies those picks as Larry Ross at No. 34 and Sherman Plunkett at No. 71. No additional player belongs in Cleveland's return, so the unsupported undisclosed asset is removed.
