Ken Woodard

Summary: Pittsburgh acquired Ken Woodard from Unknown Partner for 1989 conditional twelfth round pick (not exercised). Analysis: The trade partner for this Ken Woodard transaction has not been identified in available records. Woodard was a linebacker who spent time on Pittsburgh's roster. The compensation sent (a conditional twelfth-round pick that was not exercised) suggests Pittsburgh retained significant leverage in this negotiation, and the unexercised condition indicates the deal ultimately cost them nothing.

Summary: Pittsburgh acquired 1989 conditional twelfth round pick (not exercised) from Indianapolis/Baltimore Colts for Ken Woodard. Analysis: The trade grades against Pittsburgh because the outgoing side carried more durable value, stronger draft upside, or a better long-term return for Indianapolis/Baltimore Colts. The grade is deliberately conservative because part of the source record is incomplete, conditional, approximate, or still too recent for a firm historical verdict.

Denver acquired 1988 tenth round pick (#268-Channing Williams) from Pittsburgh Steelers for Ken Woodard. Denver converted Ken Woodard into draft capital, a practical roster-management decision rather than a franchise-shaping swing. The Broncos grade stays at C because the return was useful but limited, while Pittsburgh Steelers lands at C based on the player value it acquired.
