Trade 1 of 1
Los Angeles Rams and Miami Dolphins
Miami acquired tight end Troy Drayton from the Rams for offensive tackle Billy Milner in an October 1996 player-for-player swap. Drayton immediately became a substantial part of the Dolphins offense and remained a regular starter through 1999. Milner played only ten games for the Rams after the trade and his career was cut short, leaving Miami with the clearly stronger multi-year return.
