New England Patriots and San Francisco 49ers
San Francisco traded tight end Bob Windsor to New England on July 31, 1972 for the Patriots' 1974 first-round selection. Windsor had a limited Patriots tenure, while the 49ers ultimately used the ninth overall pick on running back Wilbur Jackson. Securing a top-ten first-rounder for a non-core veteran created a major long-term asset advantage for San Francisco.

San Francisco 49ers and Washington Commanders
San Francisco sent fullback Wilbur Jackson to Washington for second-round picks in 1981 and 1982. The first became John Harty; the second was later packaged with another choice to acquire the pick used on Bubba Paris. Jackson immediately produced more than 1,100 yards from scrimmage for Washington in 1980, but San Francisco's two premium selections created the stronger long-term asset value.
