Do the Denver Broncos need to make a blockbuster trade to keep up with Myles Garrett & the LA Rams?

**Zac Stevens** (0:01)
Blockbuster trade on the way. We're gonna talk about it on the DNVR Broncos Podcast, live from the Toyota Lounge, driven by your local front range Toyota stores. We are inside the DNVR Bar on this terrific Taco Tuesday. And welcome in to the DNVR Broncos Podcast. I got RK to my left, Henry to my right. We got you here behind the camera, and Zac rocking and rolling with you today. How are we doing, fellas?

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (0:26)
Fantastic, how are you?

**Zac Stevens** (0:27)
I am doing amazing. Nice to see your new car for the first time. That is sharp.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (0:31)
Shout out Toyota.

**Zac Stevens** (0:32)
Underground?

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (0:33)
That's the color, yeah, Underground. I saw another one of the same color today for the first time.

**Zac Stevens** (0:38)
Yeah, it's sharp.

**Henry Chisholm** (0:40)
Wait, how did that feel?

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (0:41)
Didn't like it.

**Henry Chisholm** (0:42)
Yeah, I figured, I just assumed.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (0:44)
Yeah, one of the big things, the dealership that I was at was telling me, we're the number one forerunner seller of all Toyotas in the country. And then I was like, okay, I think I want the Land Cruiser.

**Zac Stevens** (0:59)
Yeah.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (1:00)
Because not that I don't like the forerunner, but I was like, I want the unique one.

**Zac Stevens** (1:04)
Yeah. Yeah. Which dealership were you at?

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (1:08)
Mountain States.

**Zac Stevens** (1:09)
Mountain States. Nice. Shout out to Mountain States. Shout out to Toyota. Shout out to everyone tuning in with us today.
And not a shout out to Los Angeles Rams, who are making big time moves. Eight days ago, they made the trade for Myles Garrett. And wanted to talk about if the Broncos need to make a blockbuster trade in order to keep up with what the Rams are doing out there. Let's first break down that trade. Do you like that trade for the Los Angeles Rams?

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (1:40)
Yeah. Yeah. I think it's one of the better, more lobsided trades I've seen in a while. Yeah.

**Henry Chisholm** (1:48)
And the Rams just got lucky. He had a no-trade clause and that meant you don't get to like shop them around and take the best offer.
And so when that's the case, you just get them for a bargain. So, yeah, it's a great deal for him.

**Zac Stevens** (1:59)
I don't think the the Browns are getting enough.
What's the opposite of credit? Is it hate?

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (2:05)
Yeah.

**Zac Stevens** (2:05)
I get enough hate.
I feel like this is kind of like the Luka trade where they kind of shopped him in the middle of the night, didn't really make it known that he was available. And maybe it is because of that no trade clause that you're talking about there, Henry. I would assume that like he would have waved it for some other teams too. Maybe he told them like it's the Rams or nothing. And if that's the case, then I get it. But it feels like the Luka trade to me. Like there was a tweet at, I think, 7 a.m. from Schefter, someone saying like the Rams and some other teams are exploring a trade for Miles Garrett. And then two hours later, the trade happened.
I just think I think they could have got more. And I guess it just depends on how you value Jared verse. If you think he's worth two first round picks, then they probably did get a good value for him because then that's three first round picks essentially. But man, only one first round pick in return just seems like not that much.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (3:01)
Yeah.
I wouldn't compare it to the Luka trade only because Luka was super young still. Also wanted to be a MAV for life and had like made that clear.

**Zac Stevens** (3:14)
Yeah.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (3:14)
And the MAVs were contenders.

**Zac Stevens** (3:16)
Right.

**Henry Chisholm** (3:17)
Right. Was it the year before they were in the finals?

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (3:18)
Yes.

**Henry Chisholm** (3:19)
Yeah.

**Zac Stevens** (3:20)
That's crazy.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (3:21)
They were literally in the last finals that happened before that trade.

**Henry Chisholm** (3:24)
And the reason they did it was because they said he's too injury prone.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (3:28)
Yeah.

**Henry Chisholm** (3:28)
And they traded for Anthony Davis.

**Zac Stevens** (3:30)
Right.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (3:31)
So that was maybe like the worst ride in sports history.

**Henry Chisholm** (3:34)
Made by Montana State Bobcat.

**Ryan Koenigsberg** (3:37)
That's great work, Nico.

**Henry Chisholm** (3:39)
Nico Harrison.

**Zac Stevens** (3:39)
Really?
