The Denver Broncos’ reported offer for Matthew Stafford was hilariously terrible

We’ve all moved on with our lives since the Matthew Stafford trade became official last month, but MMQB’s Albert Breer dropped a small bit of news regarding that move. It’s a quiet start to the week sooooo... let’s revisit it one more time.

Breer provided details on the offer the Denver Broncos—one of several teams interested in Stafford—gave the Detroit Lions for the franchise quarterback. The specifics are hilariously awful. Per Breer, the Broncos were offering their first-round pick (ninth overall) and... well, nothing else. And if that wasn’t bad enough, the Broncos also wanted the Lions to send back a second-round pick in return.
