Indianapolis Colts and Washington Commanders

Washington Commanders Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Baltimore sent running back Jerry Allen to Washington in August 1967 for a 1968 tenth-round pick and a 1969 fourth-round pick. The first became defensive back Ocie Austin, who played 28 games for the Colts over two seasons; the later choice became Jacky Stewart. Baltimore received usable depth and two selections, but Allen immediately became a Washington starter and generated the stronger direct production.
