Baltimore acquired tight end Ron Mayo from Houston on September 12, 1974, for the 1975 tenth-round pick at No. 246. Mayo appeared in nine games for the Colts that season without a start and contributed mainly on special teams. Houston used the returned selection on Alan Pringle, who did not produce a significant NFL career, leaving the exchange close to neutral.
Baltimore sent tight end Ron Mayo to San Diego on July 29, 1975, and received a sixth-round selection in the 1976 draft. Chargers club records consistently identify the compensation as a sixth-round pick, resolving the earlier round uncertainty. Mayo did not appear in a regular-season game for San Diego, while the exact player ultimately produced by Baltimore’s pick remains unidentified, leaving little demonstrated value on either side.
