Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions
Buffalo Bills Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Buffalo moved from No. 43 to No. 34 in the 2007 draft and selected linebacker Paul Posluszny, sending Detroit picks No. 43 and No. 74. Posluszny became a full-time Bills starter whenever healthy and started 45 games across four Buffalo seasons. Detroit selected quarterback Drew Stanton at No. 43 and later used No. 74 in another trade. Stanton offered backup value, but Buffalo received the stronger direct football return from Posluszny.
Baltimore Ravens Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Detroit traded picks No. 74 and No. 101 to Baltimore for No. 61 and selected safety Gerald Alexander. Alexander gave the Lions useful early starting snaps but did not become a long-term fixture. Baltimore selected Yamon Figurs at No. 74 and later packaged No. 101 with two other choices to acquire No. 86, where it drafted future All-Pro guard Marshal Yanda. Because other picks were required, Yanda cannot be credited solely here, but Baltimore created the stronger overall value.
Detroit Lions received Dennis Northcutt. Jacksonville Jaguars received Gerald Alexander. The final review favors Detroit Lions because that return produced stronger practical football value.
