Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 4
Denver sent quarterback Don Horn to Cleveland and received the Browns' 1974 third- and sixth-round selections. The third-rounder became No. 68 overall, tackle Claudie Minor, while the sixth-rounder was later moved to Pittsburgh. Horn appeared only sparingly for Cleveland in 1973, whereas Minor became a long-term Denver starter, giving the Broncos the stronger return.
Trade 2 of 4
Denver Broncos received John Rowser in the 1974-01-30 exchange with Pittsburgh Steelers. John Rowser became a three-season Denver starter and intercepted nine passes for the Broncos, giving Denver clear direct defensive value. The direct package is the basis for the hindsight grade, with later movement of an acquired selection treated separately. That supports Denver Broncos Win.
Trade 3 of 4
Kansas City Chiefs received Tommy Reamon in the exchange with Pittsburgh Steelers. Tommy Reamon gave Kansas City useful but short-lived production after the trade. Against the other side's return of 1977 fifth round pick (#121-Cliff Stoudt), that outcome supports a C+ grade. The transaction is ultimately judged as Pittsburgh Steelers Win, with the grade reflecting realized football value rather than the name or nominal value of the asset on the trade date.
Trade 4 of 4
Chicago acquired running back Tommy Reamon from Kansas City on May 2, 1977 for a sixth-round draft pick. Reamon had played 11 games for the Chiefs the previous season, but he did not make the Bears' 1977 regular-season roster; Pro Football Archives records his September release. Chicago therefore spent a late-round selection on a veteran look that produced no regular-season Bears contribution.
