In the past two seasons, the Broncos have brought in big names in free agency, such as Peyton Manning, Wes Welker, Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and Shaun Phillips, to name a few.
With how John Elway has taken over that part of the team, do not be surprised if the Broncos are going to be big spenders in the free agency period.
Darrelle Revis' name has been popping up on the trading block and there have been rumors swirling around that the Broncos seem to be one of the teams that are willing to trade for the star cornerback. The only way I can see this happening is if they solve the contract situation with Rogers-Cromartie and Champ Bailey first. Having all three of them on the defensive side of the ball could make the secondary very formidable.
With the Broncos allowing Eric Decker to test the free agent market, the Indianapolis Colts have emerged as a potential landing spot for the wide out. It appears to make sense in due part to how the receiving core for the Colts did after the Reggie Wayne injury.
This is one rumor that could become fact, especially if the Broncos do not match an offer to bring back Decker.
With Peyton Manning passing his neck evaluation, there has been some rumors going around that the Broncos could try to restructure his contract in order to make more room to obtain or sign players in free agency. There have been mixed reports on this, but it would be an interesting story if the Broncos took that route. I do not see this happening, but stranger things have happened.
With teams looking for quarterbacks in the offseason, an interesting name has surfaced. The Houston Texans, as well as other teams, have contacted the Broncos in regards to backup quarterback Brock Osweiler. The Broncos were quick to shut down any chance of the teams wanting a shot at the quarterback, but it is an interesting topic seeing as how Osweiler does not have a whole lot of playing time. Perhaps the teams are looking at him like Aaron Rodgers was viewed when he learned under Brett Farve.
There is no chance I see the Broncos dealing him away, but it is interesting that teams have talked about acquiring a backup to the great Peyton Manning.
