Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Green Bay acquired veteran guard Bruce Van Dyke. Pittsburgh received the 1976 third-round selection that became Ron Coder at No. 70, preserving meaningful draft value from a veteran the Steelers were willing to move. Van Dyke gave Green Bay an experienced lineman, so the Packers received real utility. Pittsburgh's ability to recover a third-round choice while maintaining its championship core gives the Steelers the stronger long-term side.
Trade 2 of 2
Pittsburgh received Seattle's 1977 twelfth-round pick, No. 310, which became Jimmy Stephens. The package does not include Ron Coder on the Steelers' side; Coder moved from Pittsburgh to Seattle. With only a very late draft choice coming back and no comparable long-term payoff from that selection, Pittsburgh's realized return was limited, supporting a D+ grade in this small transaction.
