Good news for Hawks fans, Broncos defense will suffer as a result. It should improve our draft stock.

It should. I was hoping they would trade more guys, but guess I was being greedy.

Yah, lot of people were saying Jeudy, but the Broncos offense is pretty bleh at the moment. He wouldn't have gotten much in return. Meanwhile the Broncos D is playing very good, so Chubb was going to command good stock in return (which they got).

I still think the Dolphins won that trade, but the Broncos didn't get destroyed by it. I didn't think they'd get a first rounder.

Broncos had to trade him because they have so much money tied up in Russ and zero draft capital.

At this point I almost feel bad for Broncos fans.

I think the initial asking price was two first rounders. The only red flag with Chubb is his injury history. He's an incredibly talented young player.

I believe he's a free agent after the season which also played into their decision to trade him. After all the money they gave Russ, they probably figured they couldn't retain him.

Yup they only had 10 million in effective cap space next year so they would have had to do some cap juggling to sign Chubb.

I'm sure Chubb was happy to "Ride" out of Denver... He looked at his agent and said, "Les Ride!"

Yah, now that asshole is a dolphin... lost Chuck to a dolphin last year... fuckin' squeaky little fuckers... He was just harmlessly munching on a seal and that blowhole speared him in the gill.

Yah @megalodon30 said later on that day Chuck was dealing in the squid ink market.. but I still think it was foul play.

At least it was a quick death. Big Walt would have had other plans.
