Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 4
Dallas Cowboys received 1969 fifth round pick (#125-Chuck Kyle) from Los Angeles Rams for Lander McCoy Bacon / Coy Bacon. The recorded outcome favors Dallas Cowboys.
Trade 2 of 4
The Rams acquired quarterback John Hadl from the Chargers for Coy Bacon and Bob Thomas. Hadl immediately led Los Angeles to a 12-2 record in 1973 and earned NFC Player of the Year honors, then became the centerpiece of a massive five-pick trade with Green Bay in 1974. The Chargers still received quality veteran value, but the Rams maximized the asset.
Trade 3 of 4
Cincinnati acquired defensive end Coy Bacon and immediately benefited from one of the greatest pass-rushing seasons in franchise history: an unofficial 22 sacks in 1976. Los Angeles, however, received Charlie Joiner, who became a Hall of Fame receiver and spent more than a decade with the Chargers. Bacon's impact was real, but Joiner's longevity and elite production give San Diego the clear historical edge.
Trade 4 of 4
Cincinnati sent Lemar Parrish and Coy Bacon to Washington for a 1979 first-round pick, which became No. 12 overall and running back Charles Alexander. Alexander spent seven seasons with the Bengals and accumulated more than 2,600 rushing yards, giving Cincinnati meaningful value. The return still fell short of the immediate two-veteran impact Washington received.
