Dallas Cowboys and Pittsburgh Steelers
Dallas acquired Buddy Dial from Pittsburgh in the agreement announced December 18, 1963, sending the Steelers the rights to first-round pick Scott Appleton. Dial produced 713 receiving yards for the Cowboys, giving Dallas a tangible offensive return. Appleton never played for Pittsburgh, so the Cowboys clearly received more value even though the transaction was formally completed after Appleton's college season formally concluded.

Los Angeles Chargers and Tennessee Titans
San Diego received defensive lineman Scott Appleton and linebacker Johnny Baker, and both gave the Chargers useful 1967 service. Appleton started all 14 games, while Baker also contributed to the defense. That is a solid two-player return, but it was outweighed by the immediate star-level season Houston received from cornerback Miller Farr.
