Los Angeles Rams and Washington Commanders
Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
George Allen’s first major Washington move sent Marlin McKeever and seven premium-to-midround selections to Los Angeles for six veteran players and a fifth-round pick. Washington immediately gained experienced starters and became a playoff team, but the Rams converted the package into Isiah Robertson, Dave Elmendorf and additional draft assets. The long-term star power favors Los Angeles, though Washington’s immediate return was genuinely valuable.
Buffalo acquired linebacker Isiah Robertson, already an established defender, and received four seasons of service from him. Robertson appeared in 57 games for the Bills from 1979 through 1982 and intercepted seven passes, giving Buffalo a meaningful veteran return. The longer view produces a B+ grade for Buffalo Bills. Buffalo receives a B+ and Los Angeles a C+.
