NFL Trade Verdict

Buffalo Bills Win

Buffalo acquired 1977 third round pick (#73-John Kimbrough (R.)); 1977 sixth round pick (#157-Ron Pruitt) from Cleveland Browns for Earl Edwards. Buffalo converted a player or rights asset into draft capital, which is usually sound portfolio management unless the player became a major contributor elsewhere. Without a clear star outcome attached, the Bills receive a modest value edge for gaining flexible future capital
