Well, time to re-write some things…
The huge domino we expected to see fall — Aaron Rodgers to the Denver Broncos — failed to materialize. The veteran quarterback will reportedly sign a market-altering contract extension with the Green Bay Packers and return to the NFC North.
While it was easy to connect the dots between the Broncos and Rodgers, perhaps it takes more than dot-connecting to get a trade done in the NFL.
After all, the Broncos did make a trade, just not for Rodgers. Instead, Denver is trading for Russell Wilson:
Trade package:
Seattle gets QB Drew Lock, TE Noah Fant, DL Shelby Harris, two first-round picks, two second-round picks and a fifth-round pick.
Denver gets Russell Wilson and a fourth-round pick.
