Denver Broncos and Green Bay Packers
Green Bay Packers Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
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.
Detroit Lions received John Brockington from Kansas City Chiefs for Eddie Payton. John Brockington supplied the more useful documented return, preserving Detroit's modest advantage.
