Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders
Denver Broncos received Stan Fanning, 1964 sixth round pick (#47-Al Denson) from Las Vegas Raiders. Denver received Stan Fanning and the sixth-round choice that became Al Denson. Denson developed into a seven-season Bronco, giving Denver a durable return well beyond the immediate player component of the package. That outcome supports a B grade for Denver Broncos. The final verdict is Denver Broncos Win, based on the football value the club actually realized from the assets it controlled after the exchange.

Denver Broncos and Minnesota Vikings
Minnesota acquired receiver Al Denson from Denver for defensive back John Charles and a 1972 fourth-round pick that became No. 102 and linebacker Tom Graham. Denson's Vikings stay was brief, while Graham developed into a multi-season Denver starter after arriving through the exchanged pick. With Charles also included in the package, the Broncos turned one veteran into substantially more lasting value and win the deal.
