Arizona Cardinals and Washington Commanders
Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals Win Tier: minor
Confidence: high
Washington received Fred Sturt from Arizona Cardinals for Jimmie Jones, 1975 seventh round pick (#178) [later traded with Wayne Mulligan and Clifford McClain / Cliff McClain to Chicago Bears for Earl Thomas (Lewis)] and 1976 fifth round pick (#141-Wayne Morris). The recorded outcome favors Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals.
St. Louis acquired receiver Earl Thomas. Chicago received Wayne Mulligan, Cliff McClain and the 1975 seventh-round pick used on Earl Douthitt. Thomas supplied the Cardinals two seasons of receiving depth, while the Bears received multiple assets for one player. Thomas gave St. Louis some immediate use, preventing this from being a poor deal. Chicago's three-piece return, including a future draft choice, created the better overall value profile even though none became a star.
