Denver Broncos and New York Jets
Denver Broncos received Stan Blinka. Denver received linebacker Stan Blinka, but he did not produce regular-season value for the Broncos after the move. That left Denver without a meaningful on-field return from the player it acquired. Miano's multi-season Jets contribution decisively exceeded Blinka's lack of regular-season Broncos value, making New York the clear winner. That outcome supports a D grade for Denver Broncos.
Assets Received
Denver Broncos
- Player Stan Blinka
New York Jets
- Pick 1985 sixth round pick (#166-Rich Miano)
