Trade 2 of 2
On 1971-08-16, Detroit Lions and New Orleans Saints completed a deal that sent 1973 fourth round pick (#81-Mike Hennigan) to Detroit Lions and Carl Cunningham to New Orleans Saints. Cunningham started for New Orleans in 1971, so the Saints received real short-term help. Hennigan later appeared for Detroit, giving the Lions a modest but tangible return from a player they moved. That realized value supports a Detroit Lions Win verdict, with Detroit Lions graded B and New Orleans Saints graded C+.
