Sean to Denver for 2023 1st, 2024 2nd, send back a 24 3rd [MERGED]

Just because you say it’s relevant doesn’t make it so. He was under contract through 2024 whether he coached or not. Denver had to get permission to interview him whether he coached or not. He could demand a high salary and control whether he coached or not. Him pacing the sidelines last year could not be more irrelevant.

By the way, the poll on the front page shows 42% of fans on this site are unhappy with the trade. I don’t consider 58% a great majority.
It’s relevant because of precedent. Look at the Holmgren trade. A 2nd round pick. Look at Arians. And Edwards.

And the only thing the poll on this site shows is how many people created unrealistic expectations in their brains before this all began. I guarantee you a poll of neutral NFL fans (or executives for that matter) watching this situation play out would feel otherwise.

And by the way: this isn’t just playing the result. There have been plenty of us on here who have been trying to explain this for weeks and months whenever anyone would scream “Gruden trade or else!!!”
