Atlanta Falcons and Minnesota Vikings
Atlanta Falcons Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Atlanta sent Billy Martin to Minnesota on January 24, 1968, for defensive lineman Jerry Shay. Martin gave the Vikings one season, appearing in all 14 games with 10 catches, 101 receiving yards, one touchdown, and regular punting work. Shay became an immediate Atlanta starter and opened 28 games across 1968 and 1969, giving the Falcons the better long-term return.
