Denver Broncos and Miami Dolphins
Miami Dolphins Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Denver Broncos received Earl Faison, Carlton Gilchrist / Cookie Gilchrist, Ernest Park / Earnie Park / Ernie Park, and George Wilson Jr. from Miami Dolphins for Abner Haynes, Jerry Hopkins, Dan LaRose / Danny LaRose, and 1968 sixth round pick (#142-Kim Hammond). Denver's return produced little durable value: Faison and Wilson did not become meaningful Broncos contributors, Gilchrist barely played, and Park supplied the clearest short-term work. Miami's package ultimately produced the stronger team value, supporting a Miami Dolphins Win verdict.
Miami acquired linebacker Nick Buoniconti from Boston for linebacker John Bramlett, quarterback Kim Hammond and Miami's 1970 fifth-round choice, later used on Bob Olson. Buoniconti immediately became the organizing force of a defense that would anchor three straight Super Bowl teams and the perfect 1972 Dolphins, turning a modest three-asset package into one of the franchise's defining trades.
