Atlanta Falcons and Cincinnati Bengals
Even Trade Tier: major
Confidence: high
Atlanta moved from No. 35 to No. 27 in the 1989 draft and selected receiver Shawn Collins, sending Cincinnati the 35th, 89th and 256th selections. Collins flashed as a rookie and finished with 98 career catches for 1,433 yards, while Eric Ball became the most useful Bengal from the return. Neither side generated enough lasting impact to create a clear winner.
Atlanta Falcons received undisclosed draft pick (selection not identified) from Cleveland Browns for Shawn Collins. The recorded outcome does not show enough separation to identify a clear winner.
