Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Detroit Lions received Bob Rennebohm and Howard Brown / Howie Brown in the 1948-07-25 exchange with Green Bay Packers. Howard Brown became a Detroit starter and gave the Lions meaningful immediate value from the four-player exchange. The realized value remains close enough to support an even result.

Green Bay Packers received John Martinkovic. Green Bay acquired John Martinkovic and received a major long-term defensive-line return. Martinkovic played 72 consecutive games for the Packers across six seasons and earned three Pro Bowl selections. His durability, starting-level role, and league recognition turned the deal into one of the clearest value wins in this tranche.
