Ernest Park / Earnie Park / Ernie Park

Denver acquired Rick Egloff from Oakland Raiders for Ernest Park / Earnie Park / Ernie Park. Denver swapped Ernest Park / Earnie Park / Ernie Park for Rick Egloff, a direct player-value trade with limited evidence of a major long-term swing. The grades remain modest because the available record supports a useful roster exchange, not a clear franchise-changing win.

Denver acquired Earl Faison; Carlton Gilchrist / Cookie Gilchrist; Ernest Park / Earnie Park / Ernie Park; George Wilson Jr. from Miami Dolphins in exchange for Abner Haynes; Jerry Hopkins; Dan LaRose / Danny LaRose; 1968 sixth round pick (#142-Kim Hammond). Denver paid draft capital for Earl Faison, making this a targeted personnel acquisition instead of a pure pick shuffle. The Broncos grade of C reflects the balance between immediate roster help and the opportunity cost of the pick sent to Miami Dolphins.
