Baltimore sent linebacker Dennis Gaubatz to Washington for defensive lineman Frank Bosch and the 1970 fourth-round pick used on Steve Smear. Bosch did not survive the Colts’ final cuts and returned to Washington on waivers, while Smear chose the CFL and never played for Baltimore. Gaubatz retired before providing Washington regular-season value. The Colts acquired two assets, but neither produced an NFL return, leaving the deal effectively even.
