Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

The Los Angeles Rams acquired Bob Stein plus the 1973 second- and fourth-round picks used on Jim Youngblood and Eddie McMillan, sending Willie Ellison and Pete Beathard to Kansas City. Youngblood became a long-term Rams linebacker and Pro Bowl-level contributor, giving Los Angeles lasting value well beyond Kansas City's veteran return and making the Rams the clear winner.
