Minnesota Vikings and Philadelphia Eagles
Even Trade Tier: standard
Confidence: moderate
Minnesota sent quarterback Bill Cappleman to Philadelphia for a 1973 fourth-round pick that became No. 80 overall and Mike Wells. The Eagles did not receive meaningful regular-season production from Cappleman, while Wells likewise failed to develop into a significant Vikings contributor. Minnesota obtained a useful draft chance, but the realized on-field return remained minimal on both sides, making an even C/C result more appropriate than strong grades.
New England Patriots Win Tier: minor
Confidence: high
Philadelphia Eagles received Jim Nance from New England Patriots for 1973 fourth round pick (possibly #80-Mike Wells (Eugene)). The recorded outcome favors New England Patriots.
Minnesota Vikings acquired 1994 2nd round pick (55th overall, Fernando Smith) and 1994 4th round pick (125th overall, Mike Wells) from Las Vegas Raiders for 1994 2nd round pick (52nd overall, James Folston). The overall result favors Vikings over Minnesota Vikings.
