New Orleans Saints and Washington Commanders
Even Trade Tier: minor
Confidence: high
Washington received Bill Kilmer / Billy Kilmer and Bill Kilmer from New Orleans Saints for Tom Roussel, 1971 fourth round pick (#88-Richard Winther / Wimpy Winther) and 1971 eighth round pick (#194-James Elder / Jim Elder). The recorded outcome does not show enough separation to identify a clear winner.
New Orleans Saints Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
On 1971-08-20, Green Bay Packers and New Orleans Saints completed a deal that sent Richard Winther to Green Bay Packers and 1972 fifth round pick (#111-Bill Butler) to New Orleans Saints. Winther's Packers stay was brief and produced limited playing value. Butler, by contrast, spent three seasons with New Orleans, appeared in 41 games and started 21, creating a much stronger realized return from a modest pick. That realized value supports a New Orleans Saints Win verdict, with Green Bay Packers graded C and New Orleans Saints graded B+.
