It was a 2019 conditional draft pick. He might not have made it past waivers to the Broncos. It was a good move by John to make the trade and make sure to get him rather than see someone else pick him up.
He is 33 with a year left on his contract, I heard his deal has between $1-2 Mill left on it so good value move.
Can still cut the old kFc trash tackle if he needs cap space.
Either way this guy is an instant upgrade over the trash options opposite Leary at G with either Garcia or Schofield. Plus he has played tackle so if Bolles needs a couple extra weeks to earn the LT job John and Vance have options along the OL. All the guys he has picked up can move around the OL if needed.
Broncos making all the right moves this offseason.
