There are a lot of factors that go into why the Seahawks’ trade of Russell Wilson to the Broncos has turned out great in Seattle and, well, the exact opposite in Denver.<\/p>\n

A Denver perspective of Seahawks’ trade of Russell Wilson to Broncos<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brandon Stokley<\/a>a former star NFL receiver who spent time with both the Broncos and Seahawks, now hosts Stokley and Zach for The Fan 104.3 FM in Denver, a sister station of Seattle Sports, so he’s seen the entire situation with Wilson up close this season.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s been bad and we are starting an investigation here on all Seattle Seahawks \u2013 (coach) Pete Carroll, (general manager) John Schneider,\u201d Stokley joked when he joined Seattle Sports’ Brock and Salk on Tuesday. \u201cY’all sold us a lemon.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stokley went through quite the list when Mike Salk asked him what the worst part of the Wilson trade has been.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh my gosh, everything,\u201d Stokley responded. \u201cI mean, he’s played awful. They gave him a huge contract, so it’s not like you can move on from him really here in the next couple of years. You’re probably stuck for three years. \u2026 And you traded away a couple first-round picks.\u201d<\/p>\n

And that’s the most interesting part of all for the Seahawks and their fans, because the second of those first-rounders comes in 2023, meaning it’s tied to how Denver finishes this season. Currently, the Broncos are 3-8, which not only has them in last place in the AFC West but in line for the No. 4 picks in the 2023 NFL Draft. And with the Los Angeles Rams and Chicago Bears both at 3-9, it won’t take much for Denver to fall even farther down the overall standings.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt might be the No. 2 overall pick this year, guys,\u201d Stokley said to Salk and Brock Huard, his former Indianapolis Colts teammate. \u201cI mean, that’s a big deal. And so it’s all of it rolled into one. It’s just been a complete disaster this year.\u201d<\/p>\n
