Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired Bill Truax / Billy Truax from Cleveland Browns for 1965 second round pick (#22-Gerry Bussell). Hindsight leans toward Cleveland Browns because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.
