Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
San Diego acquired the 222nd pick in 1993 and used it on quarterback Trent Green, sending San Francisco a 1994 sixth-round choice that became No. 175. Green later enjoyed a long, productive NFL career, but not for the Chargers, while San Francisco later moved the future sixth. Because neither franchise directly captured the famous downstream player value attached to its asset, the trade itself finished as a modest draw.
Trade 2 of 2
Green Bay Packers received 1994 3rd round pick (84th overall, LeShon Johnson), 1994 5th round pick (149th overall, Dorsey Levens), and 1994 6th round pick (175th overall, Ruffin Hamilton) in the 1994-04-24 exchange with San Francisco 49ers. Dorsey Levens became a major Packers offensive contributor and long-tenured back, creating the decisive realized value in the exchange. That gives Green Bay Packers the stronger overall return.
