Denver acquired 2012 5th round pick (167th overall subsequently traded, George Iloka) from Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams for Brandon Lloyd. Denver converted Brandon Lloyd 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 Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams lands at C based on the player value it acquired.
