The Denver Broncos have seen linear progression in each of the first two seasons of the Bo Nix era. After making it into the postseason as the No. 7 seed in 2024, the Broncos were the No. 1 seed in the AFC in 2025 and defeated the Buffalo Bills to make it to the AFC Championship Game. With that in mind, the Broncos can make a big move to build off a tremendous 2025 campaign.
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown is likely on the move this offseason after a season of utter frustration. Brown had five games with three or fewer receptions during the season, including the wild card loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Because of the struggles and frustration, it's expected that Brown will be traded this offseason.
In a recent piece for CBS Sports, Tyler Sullivan labels the Broncos as a potential landing spot for Brown, and predicts it would cost a third and fifth-round pick to land the star receiver.
"When Philadelphia acquired Brown from the Titans in 2022, the Eagles sent the No. 18 overall pick in that year's draft to Tennessee," Sullivan writes. "Getting a first (or maybe even a second) at this stage of Brown's career seems a little too far-fetched, particularly with his age and contract situation (signed through 2029 and due $29 million in guarantees next season). Brown also appeared to lose a step in 2025, notably dropping some key balls in that playoff defeat to San Francisco. That may also make some prospective teams a bit skittish about trading blue-chip draft capital for him."
The Broncos have a few nice pieces in the receiving corps like Marvin Mims and Pat Bryant, but adding Brown as the No. 1 and making Courtland Sutton the No. 2 would give them a more complete and dangerous group of pass-catchers.
