Buffalo Bills and Los Angeles Chargers
Buffalo Bills received 1973 conditional pick (#110-Wallace Francis). Buffalo received the conditional 1973 choice that became No. 110 and used it on Wallace Francis. Francis went on to a multi-year NFL career, giving Buffalo tangible value from the acquired draft asset. That direct player outcome was more useful than the limited Chargers contribution from Cal Snowden. That stronger outcome supports a B- grade for Buffalo Bills.

Atlanta Falcons and Buffalo Bills
Atlanta acquired Wallace Francis and received seven seasons of productive receiver play from 1975 through 1981. Francis developed into a starting weapon and topped 1,000 receiving yards in 1979, giving the Falcons both longevity and peak production from the exchange. That substantial direct return overwhelms the limited value Buffalo obtained from the two draft selections it received.
