Philadelphia acquired running back Larry Watkins from Detroit on October 6, 1970 for a 1971 second-round pick. Watkins became useful Eagles depth, playing 37 games with nine starts over three seasons and rushing for 456 yards. Detroit secured premium draft capital for a player who had been a part-time contributor. The exact downstream identity of the pick is disputed in surviving transaction records, so the grade does not depend on naming a specific draftee.
Buffalo Bills received Larry Watkins from Philadelphia Eagles for Dick Cunningham. The recorded outcome does not show enough separation to identify a clear winner.
Buffalo Bills received 1976 draft pick (possibly #195-Jackie Williams) and undisclosed consideration from New York Giants for Larry Watkins and undisclosed consideration. The recorded outcome does not show enough separation to identify a clear winner.
