NFL Trade Verdict

Denver Broncos Win

Denver acquired Joe Mays from Philadelphia Eagles for J.J. Arrington and 2012 6th round pick (194th overall, Marvin McNutt) (conditional pick for Arrington not making roster). Denver paid draft capital for Joe Mays, 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 Philadelphia Eagles.
