Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Rams

Detroit Lions Win Tier: major Confidence: high

Los Angeles acquired six-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Roger Brown from Detroit for three premium draft choices: a 1968 first-rounder used on Earl McCullouch, a 1968 third-rounder used on Hall of Fame tight end Charlie Sanders, and a 1969 second-rounder used on Jim Yarbrough. Brown immediately strengthened an elite Rams defense, but Detroit converted the package into three long-term starters, giving the Lions the greater enduring return.
