Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
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.
Trade 2 of 2
Tampa Bay acquired offensive tackle Jeff Winans from Oakland for a 1978 fourth-round pick. Winans started 11 games for the Buccaneers in 1977 and one more in 1978, giving Tampa Bay immediate line help. Oakland used No. 86 on Maurice Harvey, who did not produce regular-season value for the Raiders, flipping the result toward Tampa Bay.
