Buffalo Bills and Las Vegas Raiders
Buffalo Bills Win Tier: standard
Confidence: medium
Buffalo traded Jeff Winans to Oakland for a 1977 third-round draft choice that the Bills later moved to Houston in the Emmett Edwards deal. Bills historical material supports the third-round return, while the exact direct connection to pick No. 84 is less certain. Buffalo still converted a player with little Oakland value into useful draft currency.
Houston Oilers/Tennessee Titans Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Buffalo acquired wide receiver Emmett Edwards from Houston during the 1976 season. Edwards caught two passes for 53 yards for the Bills, so the immediate return was small. The third-round choice sent to Houston became Rob Carpenter, a productive NFL runner, making Buffalo's brief receiving help expensive in hindsight.
