Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
San Francisco 49ers received Bob Hayes (Lee) from Dallas Cowboys for 1976 third round pick (#73-Duke Ferguson). The recorded outcome favors San Francisco 49ers.
Trade 2 of 2
Dallas moved up from No. 14 to No. 2 in the 1977 draft and selected Tony Dorsett, a future Hall of Fame running back who immediately helped a championship team. The Cowboys paid four selections, including two second-rounders, but Dorsett’s star-level production and longevity made the aggressive move an A+ outcome.
