Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Miami's official trade history records a January 15, 1966 exchange sending linebacker Ron Caveness to Houston for the rights to quarterback Billy Anderson. Caveness had been selected by Miami in the AFL expansion process and was immediately turned into a quarterback-rights asset. Houston wins because Caveness became a multi-season contributor while Miami's rights to Anderson produced little visible return. The Dolphins' expansion context explains the gamble, but the actual career value landed on the Oilers' side.
Trade 2 of 2
Boston acquired Sid Blanks, Larry Carwell, Ron Caveness, and Charlie Frazier from Houston for Leroy Mitchell and a 1970 second-round pick. The four-player package supplied immediate roster depth, and Patriots records explicitly document the exchange. None of the incoming players became a long-term franchise cornerstone, however, while giving up a second-round selection reduced the value of the quantity Boston received. Houston therefore keeps the slight edge.
