Transaction Snapshot
Recorded Trade
Trade 1 of 1
Denver Broncos and Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Denver acquired Ron Holmes in September 1989 and received immediate pass-rush help. Holmes recorded nine sacks during a season that ended with the Broncos reaching the Super Bowl, so the trade delivered meaningful short-term value. The B grade recognizes that contribution while also acknowledging that Tampa Bay's eventual return, Tony Mayberry, became the more durable and decorated long-term asset.
