Trade 2 of 2

Denver Broncos and New York Giants

Denver Broncos Win Tier: major Confidence: high

Denver acquired Craig Morton from the Giants for quarterback Steve Ramsey and a 1978 fifth-round pick. Morton immediately stabilized the Broncos, won major AFC player honors in 1977 and led the franchise to its first Super Bowl appearance. The timing and magnitude of that impact make the trade one of Denver’s most important quarterback moves.

  • Player Craig Morton
