Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Detroit Lions received 2007 5th round pick (154th overall subsequently traded, Clifton Ryan) in the deal with Los Angeles Rams. Detroit later combined pick 154 with another fifth-rounder to move up for Manuel Ramirez, who eventually started 15 Lions games. The draft asset produced useful downstream value. That outcome supports a B- for Detroit Lions. The Los Angeles Rams Win verdict weighs documented games, starts, production and connected draft value.
Trade 2 of 2
Detroit moved up to No. 117 and selected Manny Ramirez. During his original Lions stint from 2007 through 2009, Ramirez appeared in 18 games with 15 starts, giving Detroit a legitimate stretch of offensive-line service. His separate return to Detroit in 2015 is not part of this exchange, leaving the original contribution useful but smaller than the Rams' combined direct return.
