Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 3
Dallas Cowboys received 1972 fourth round pick (#90-Robert West) in the exchange with New England Patriots. Dallas used the fourth-round selection on No. 90 Robert West, but West did not create regular-season value comparable to Kiner's immediate contribution in New England. Against New England Patriots' return of Steve Kiner, that result supports a D+ grade. The transaction is judged as New England Patriots Win, with the mark based on the football value that actually followed from the deal.
Trade 2 of 3
San Francisco acquired receiver Robert West from Kansas City on September 9, 1974 for the 1975 sixth-round pick that became linebacker Dave Wasick. West appeared in 10 games as a 49ers reserve that season and was later traded to Oakland for a future conditional choice that did not vest. His San Francisco impact was modest, but it still exceeded the Chiefs' return because Wasick never played an NFL regular-season game.
Trade 3 of 3
Las Vegas Raiders received Robert West. The Raiders received Robert West on a conditional arrangement. West was released during training camp before the 1975 regular season and did not provide Oakland with regular-season production. Because the condition tied to his making the Raiders roster was not met, Oakland received no lasting player value and did not trigger the draft compensation. That result supports a C- grade for Las Vegas Raiders.
