Green Bay Packers and Los Angeles Rams
Los Angeles Rams Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Green Bay sent first-, second- and third-round choices in 1975 plus first- and second-round choices in 1976 to Los Angeles for 34-year-old quarterback John Hadl. Hadl went 7-12 as a Packers starter across 1974 and 1975 and threw nine touchdowns against 29 interceptions in his 22 Green Bay games. The Rams used or converted the haul into Mike Fanning, Monte Jackson, Geoff Reece, Ron Jessie and Pat Thomas, with Jackson and Thomas becoming Pro Bowl defensive backs. That balance of realized value gives the edge to Los Angeles Rams.
Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams Win Tier: major
Confidence: high
Oakland acquired cornerback Monte Jackson and received a proven starter who remained useful through the Raiders’ Super Bowl XV season. That was meaningful short-term value, but the price was three draft choices, and Los Angeles ultimately found far more durable value in the package, especially with the selection that became standout cornerback LeRoy Irvin.
Los Angeles Rams received Monte Jackson and conditional seventh round pick (not exercised) from Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders for Pat Thomas (S.). The recorded outcome does not show enough separation to identify a clear winner.
