Indianapolis Colts and Los Angeles Rams

Even Trade Tier: standard Confidence: high

Indianapolis acquired George Radachowsky from the Rams on August 27, 1984 for a 1985 eleventh-round pick. Radachowsky played all 16 games as a Colts rookie and three more in 1985, giving Indianapolis immediate depth. Los Angeles used the pick on Doug Flutie, who never played for the Rams but whose rights were later traded to Chicago for future draft value. Both teams extracted something useful.
