Miami Dolphins Win
Denver traded Brandon Marshall to Miami for two second-round picks, moving on from a high-end receiver while recouping strong draft value. Marshall remained productive after leaving Denver, but the Broncos secured fair compensation and used the situation to reset the roster. Both sides had a defensible case, making this closer to a balanced football trade than a fleece.
