I think what this season shows is that this trade was a true win-win situtation, which is probably why it happened despite the fact that such blockbuster trades are so rare in the NFL.
Gibbs needed a solid running back, and he got one. Our running game with Portis is greatly improved compared with last year, and should only get better. And our defense is stellar even without Bailey.
Denver decided that its priority was in upgrading its defense, and it has done just that. Moreover, Mike Shanahan is demonstrating very persuasively that he truly can plug any running back into his system and make it work. I mean, had anyone heard of Droughns at the beginning of this season?
