Some day, NFL historians will look back at the trade for and blind lucrative contract offering to QB Russell Wilson from the Denver Broncos and note it as one of the worst decisions, from both a financial and team-building perspective, of all time.
In two years as the supposed guy who would get the Broncos back to annual playoff contention, Wilson was abysmal in his first season, but was cut some slack due to the incompetence of his head coach, Nathaniel Hackett. This past season, under new coach Sean Payton, he was too limited to execute the playbook to its full potential and was relegated to game manager at best.
