Trade 1 of 2
Atlanta Falcons and Buffalo Bills
Atlanta Falcons received Louis Ross. Louis Ross did not appear in a regular-season game for Atlanta before the Falcons moved him again, leaving no direct on-field return. That outcome supports a D+ grade because the return is measured by the direct football value Atlanta Falcons actually received after the deal, compared with the asset sent the other way.
Assets Received

- Player Louis Ross
Buffalo Bills

Trade 2 of 2
Arizona Cardinals and Buffalo Bills
St. Louis acquired running back Willie Belton from Buffalo for a 1974 tenth-round pick that became Art Cameron. Belton appeared in three games for the Cardinals in 1973 and five more in 1974, giving St. Louis at least some backfield service. Cameron did not produce an NFL regular-season career for Buffalo. The return was modest on both sides, but the Cardinals received the only documented game-day value.
Assets Received
Buffalo Bills
- Pick 1974 tenth round pick (#241-Art Cameron)
Arizona Cardinals
- Player Willie Belton
