San Francisco 49ers and Washington Commanders
San Francisco 49ers received 1962 sixth round pick (#71-Keith Luhnow) from Washington Commanders, sending Rodney Breedlove / Rod Breedlove the other way. Breedlove became a multi-season Washington regular and earned Pro Bowl recognition, giving Washington far more realized NFL value than San Francisco received from the late-round return. That outcome supports a D+ grade for San Francisco 49ers, and the overall verdict is Washington Commanders Win.

Pittsburgh Steelers and Washington Commanders
Pittsburgh acquired linebacker Rod Breedlove from Washington and received three seasons of useful service. Breedlove appeared in 39 games for the Steelers from 1965 through 1967, giving the defense dependable depth and meaningful playing time. Washington's seventh-round return did not create comparable regular-season value, so Pittsburgh turned a low-cost move into the stronger football outcome and merits a B grade.
