San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos
Denver Broncos Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
San Francisco sent picks 37 and 68 to Denver for the 22nd selection in the 2006 draft and used it on linebacker Manny Lawson. Lawson became a long-lived NFL starter and contributor. Denver then turned No. 37 into Javon Walker and included No. 68 in a larger move that helped the Broncos climb for Jay Cutler, giving Denver greater flexibility and downstream value.
Denver traded the 15th and 68th picks to St. Louis to move to No. 11 in the 2006 draft and select quarterback Jay Cutler. Cutler became a Pro Bowler and threw for 4,526 yards in 2008 before Denver later moved him for another major package. The Rams used their selections on cornerback Tye Hill and defensive tackle Claude Wroten, neither of whom became a long-term cornerstone, leaving Denver with the stronger result.
Denver Broncos Win Tier: landmark
Confidence: high
Denver Broncos received Kyle Orton, 2009 1st round pick (18th overall, Robert Ayers), 2009 3rd round pick (84th overall subsequently traded, Mike Wallace) and 2010 1st round pick (11th overall subsequently traded, Anthony Davis). Chicago Bears received Jay Cutler and 2009 5th round pick (140th overall, Johnny Knox). The final review favors Denver Broncos because that return produced stronger practical football value.
