Trade 1 of 1
Denver Broncos and Indianapolis Colts
Denver received Baltimore's 1980 eighth-round pick, No. 197, and used it on Don Coleman. Coleman did not develop into meaningful regular-season value for the Broncos. Since Bucky Dilts immediately handled the Colts' punting job for all 16 games in 1979, Denver ended up with the weaker direct return and receives a D+.
