Cowboys’ Parsons disaster makes Broncos' biggest trade look like nothing

The Dallas Cowboys trading away Micah Parsons makes the Denver Broncos biggest trade look like nothing. The Broncos shocked the NFL world back in the 2022 NFL Season and swung a major trade for Russell Wilson.

At the time, it felt like one of the biggest gambles in the history of the NFL, and in typical pre-Sean Payton, post-Peyton Manning Broncos fashion, it did not work out at all. After just two years with the team, Denver cut ties, but the rest is history.

The Broncos have somehow gotten out of this mess and are totally done with the Russell Wilson era, officially, after the 2025 NFL Season when the rest of the dead cap leaves their books.
