Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles
Green Bay Packers Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Green Bay sent Jim Ringo and Earl Gros to Philadelphia on May 5, 1964, for linebacker Lee Roy Caffey and the first-round pick that became Donny Anderson. Ringo remained an elite center for four Eagles seasons and Gros became a useful starter, but Caffey and Anderson contributed to Green Bay championship teams. Both sides gained real value, with the Packers winning the long-term comparison.
Pittsburgh Steelers Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Philadelphia Eagles received Gary Ballman from Pittsburgh Steelers for Earl Gros, Bruce Van Dyke, and 1967 third round pick (#73-Rockne Freitas / Rocky Freitas). Gary Ballman remained a productive Philadelphia receiver for several seasons, giving the Eagles legitimate value. Across the complete player and draft outcomes, the exchange supports the Pittsburgh Steelers Win verdict while still crediting the other club for the useful value it realized.
