Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Green Bay sent quarterback Don Horn and the 12th pick in the 1971 draft to Denver for defensive end Alden Roche and the ninth pick. The Packers used No. 9 on John Brockington, who won Offensive Rookie of the Year, earned three straight Pro Bowls and opened his career with three consecutive 1,000-yard rushing seasons. That star-level draft outcome makes Green Bay the decisive winner.
Trade 2 of 2
Green Bay sent veteran defensive end Alden Roche to Baltimore on September 6, 1977 for a conditional 1978 seventh-round choice. Indianapolis' official Colts history marks that pick with an asterisk identifying a trade canceled by an unmet condition, so Green Bay never received the selection. Roche was released by Baltimore six days later, leaving the Packers without a realized return but also without surrendering meaningful future value.
