Indianapolis Colts and Las Vegas Raiders
Oakland Raiders Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Baltimore acquired Eldridge Dickey from Oakland on January 28, 1972 for the Colts' third-round pick, No. 74. Dickey never appeared in another NFL regular-season game, while Oakland quickly used the pick as part of a draft-day move with New Orleans. The Raiders therefore converted a player leaving their plans into useful draft capital, giving Oakland a clear advantage.
Pick 1972 third round pick (#74) [later traded with 1972 second round pick (#39-John Babinecz) to New Orleans Saints for 1972 second round pick (#33-Kelvin Korver)]
Indianapolis Colts Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Baltimore sent Eldridge Dickey to Kansas City on July 23, 1972, for the Chiefs' 1973 third-round pick, later No. 67 overall. The Colts then sent that selection to Cleveland for center Fred Hoaglin; Cleveland used No. 67 on Bob Crum. Dickey never appeared in another NFL game, while Hoaglin played all 14 games for Baltimore in 1973, giving the Colts the better return.
