Steve DeBerg

Denver acquired 1984 fourth round pick (#89-Randy Robbins); conditional pick (depending on DeBerg's playing time) (1985 #36-Richard Byrd / Ricky Byrd) from Tampa Bay Buccaneers for Steve DeBerg. Denver converted Steve DeBerg into draft capital, a practical roster-management decision rather than a franchise-shaping swing. The Broncos grade stays at C because the return was useful but limited, while Tampa Bay Buccaneers lands at C based on the player value it acquired.

Denver acquired Steve DeBerg from San Francisco 49ers for 1983 fourth round pick (#87-Chuck Nelson). Denver paid draft capital for Steve DeBerg, making this a targeted personnel acquisition instead of a pure pick shuffle. The Broncos grade of C reflects the balance between immediate roster help and the opportunity cost of the pick sent to San Francisco 49ers.
