Baltimore Ravens and Indianapolis Colts
Even Trade Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Baltimore acquired veteran quarterback Jim Harbaugh and the 93rd pick from Indianapolis on February 17, 1998, sending the Colts picks 71 and 104. Harbaugh started 12 games for the Ravens in 1998, while Indianapolis used No. 71 on receiver E.G. Green and later moved No. 104 in another trade. Neither side created major long-term value from the original exchange, making the deal a balanced veteran-for-draft-capital swap.
Indianapolis Colts Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Indianapolis traded picks 104, 124 and 154 to Baltimore for the 93rd pick in the 1998 draft and selected offensive lineman Steve McKinney. McKinney started all 60 games he played for the Colts and finished a 10-year career with 143 games and 133 starts. Baltimore received three later selections and additional flexibility, but none of the direct return matched the long-term starting value Indianapolis found at No. 93.
