Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
The Cardinals acquired Frank Tripucka and received immediate quarterback production in 1950. He appeared in 10 games, started once, threw for 720 yards and four touchdowns, and gave the club a real if short-lived return. Arizona did not come away empty-handed, but the value was much narrower than Detroit's three-player package.
Trade 2 of 2
Detroit Lions received cash. Detroit received cash for Clarence Self. The payment was legitimate consideration, but the amount and any downstream roster use are not established in the surviving record. Detroit therefore gets credit for monetizing the player, but not for a specific football outcome that cannot be traced.
