NFL Trade Verdict

Indianapolis Colts Win

Baltimore Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired Sims Stokes; 1969 fifth round pick (#127-Tony Pleviak) from Dallas Cowboys for Andy Stynchula. Hindsight favors the Colts side the edge because the incoming value produced more lasting franchise value than the package surrendered. The grade is still scaled to the trade tier so minor cash or depth moves do not receive exaggerated treatment.
