Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Green Bay received the 1969 sixth-round pick used on Ron Jones after sending defensive back Dick Capp to Pittsburgh. The selection did not create comparable Packers value, while Capp at least supplied Pittsburgh with a full season of roster availability. The pick preserved some future flexibility for Green Bay, but its realized football return was limited, supporting a D+ grade for the Packers.
Trade 2 of 2
Atlanta acquired tight end Ron Jones from Green Bay for cash on September 2, 1970. Jones had played six games for Green Bay in 1969 but never appeared in a regular-season game for Atlanta. In hindsight, the grades are D+ for Atlanta Falcons and C+ for Green Bay Packers, producing a Green Bay Packers Win verdict. The modest scoring reflects the limited scale of the transaction.
