NFL Trade Verdict

Green Bay Packers Win

Green Bay acquired Johnny 'Blood' McNally from Pottsville for nothing listed. McNally is a Pro Football Hall of Famer and key to the Packers' 1929-31 three-peat. Pottsville gave away a generational talent for no compensation. This is a foundational franchise theft.

Pottsville Maroons received nothing of record and lost a Hall of Famer who helped Green Bay dominate the early NFL. Green Bay Packers has the edge because the recorded return carries stronger long-term football value than the package credited to Pottsville Maroons.
