Chicago Bears and Los Angeles Rams
Chicago sent veteran safety Richie Petitbon to Los Angeles for cornerback Lee Calland, a 1970 fourth-round pick used on Ross Brupbacher, and a 1971 third-round pick used on Bob Newton. Petitbon remained a capable starter for two Rams seasons, but Chicago recovered a player plus two meaningful selections for a 31-year-old defender. That return gives the Bears the stronger overall value.

Los Angeles sent veteran safety Richie Petitbon to Washington in August 1971. The return was a 1973 sixth-round selection plus a 1974 first-round pick, with the premium choice revised from a 1973 second-rounder after Washington discovered that selection had already been traded. The first-rounder later became part of another Rams transaction.
