Cincinnati Bengals and Kansas City Chiefs
Cincinnati Bengals Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Kansas City acquired linebacker Ken Avery from Cincinnati for a future fourth-round choice. Avery gave the Chiefs one season, appearing in all 14 games with five starts in 1975. Cincinnati used the resulting No. 106 pick in 1976 on Tony Davis, who spent three seasons with the Bengals and remained in the NFL for six years. The Bengals receive a modest edge for the longer realized return.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Cincinnati received the 1980 sixth-round selection that became Andrew Melontree at No. 159. The pick supplied a real draft asset, but Melontree did not create enough NFL value to make the Bengals' return stand out. The longer view produces a C+ grade for Cincinnati Bengals. Tampa Bay gets a B and Cincinnati a C+.
