Trade Analysis
The counterpart gained a modest realized-value advantage. Denver's side was led by cash, while the principal outgoing value was rights to Bill Newton. The D/C- grades reflect the players and picks that actually materialized, with contract, age, competitive-window fit, and downstream pick conversion treated as context rather than substitutes for realized value.
