Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Buffalo sent receiver Richard Trapp to the Chargers and received the 1970 third-round pick used on Glenn Alexander. Alexander played 13 games for the Bills as a rookie, catching four passes for 51 yards and handling kickoff-return work. Trapp’s Chargers stint lasted only eight games with two catches for 39 yards. Neither return became a major piece, but Buffalo extracted slightly more usable value.
Trade 2 of 2
The Chargers acquired cornerback Randy Beverly from the Jets, but Beverly did not become a meaningful regular-season contributor for San Diego after the exchange. The player-for-player structure gave the Chargers a straightforward opportunity to add secondary help, yet the realized return remained minimal. Because Rich Trapp likewise failed to create a material advantage for New York, the Chargers' side fits a C- grade and an even verdict.
