Denver Broncos and Houston Texans
Denver Broncos Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Denver sent Demaryius Thomas and a 2019 seventh-round pick to Houston for a 2019 fourth-round pick and another seventh-round pick. Houston acquired Demaryius Thomas during an 11-win season, but he played only seven regular-season games for the Texans before an Achilles injury ended his year; the club released him the following February. Denver obtained a fourth-round pick while only exchanging seventh-round positions. For an aging receiver nearing the end of his contract, that return was strong and gives Denver the clear value edge.
Cincinnati Bengals Win Tier: standard
Confidence: medium
Denver traded picks No. 52, No. 125 and No. 182 to Cincinnati to move up to No. 42 for quarterback Drew Lock. Lock started 21 games for the Broncos but never secured the franchise job and later became part of the Russell Wilson trade. Cincinnati turned the return into Drew Sample, Renell Wren and Trayveon Williams, getting longer aggregate service despite no star outcome.
