Blockbuster Trade in the Works

Broncos gonna get an average QB who relies on a strong run game and will be demanding a contract bigger than Osweiler got after this season for their first and likely a very good player. Would help them this year but put them in an even deeper whole going forward.

Considering the source it's almost definitely made up, but it would be awesome if there was a blockbuster trade like this. It also seems pretty reasonable from all 3 teams perspectives assuming the unidentified player is a bottom of the roster guy.

I'm not so sure that looks like the most reliable site for sports news.

Word on this anywhere else?

It's been on Reddit and the Bills board for the past 24 hours or so.  Nothing has been announced "official" or pending though.

I think TT can be a top 10 QB, but for whatever reason the Bills aren't sold on him. If I was any QB needy team I'd be putting together a trade offer for him. I think the Broncos are winning out in this scenario.

Maybe the Bills liked him but just saw an opportunity to get a guy they like better in Wentz.

IMO Wentz has the franchise "ceiling" a team like Buffalo desperately needs, Tyrod can run a system like Denver's which they need, and the Browns get to build from the ground up with a brand new front office.

Time will tell but this looks good for all parties, even though it looks like Denver is banking on its roster not having taken a major hit with their losses.

    • Correct this logic I might if it meant taking his guaranteed money now and spread it over 3 years (2026-2028) and maybe add $6m.  I am not sure you can do that, or that he would do it, but it would be a way for him to extend his career and bank accounts and we would be getting him for $6m for 2 years (if healthy), basically, since his entire salary is guaranteed now.  If not, we lose an additional $6m spread over 2 years.  So let's say his guaranteed $$ for 2026 is $18m.  Give him a $24m contract ($8m per) through 2028.  Worst case:  We get $10m in cap relief now and create $3m dead cap for 2 years (2027-8).   Best case?  We get cap relief now and a good/decent guard/tackle for 2 years (2027-2028) and the total salary per year when he is active would be $12m if you don't count any money for the season he cannot play.  That is a good value, and we'd basically be getting a 50% discount rate.  Since we have so much guaranteed now, extending him is not as crazy as it seems.   Something has to be wrong with this logic...      
    • I don't disagree about Nikishin's potential availability, but Hamilton as a replacement? Not an upgrade in my book.
