The Denver Broncos could make an unexpectedly prime trade destination for Miami Dolphins star Bradley Chubb before the 2025 deadline.

The NFL trade deadline ( Nov. 4) is 11 days away, but with two games before now and the deadline, Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton is not dwelling on potential moves.

Another potential area of need (though not for quantity) is wide receiver — specifically, an upgrade over Troy Franklin at WR2, opposite Courtland Sutton. If Payton goes hunting there, he might look to his former employer, the New Orleans Saints, who are rumored to be dangling WRs Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed on the block.

The Denver Broncos could approach the trade deadline differently after third-year offensive lineman Alex Palczewski started in Week 7.

The NFL trade deadline ( Nov. 4 ) is drawing closer, and the Denver Broncos could use reinforcements at guard and wide receiver, but it remains to be seen if general manager George Paton will be willing to surrender draft capital for short-term answers.

The Denver Broncos currently sit at 5-2 on the season, with one of, if not the best, defenses in the entire NFL. With the trade deadline looming, Denver could be in the market to add another playmaker on the offensive side of the football.

The Broncos just completed one of the most shocking comebacks in NFL history, reeling off a 33-point quarter to stun a Giants team that held a 19-0 lead at one point. The win moved Denver to 5-2, which remains good enough for the AFC West lead.

The Denver Broncos could be buyers at the 2025 NFL trade deadline, and Cleveland Browns guard Joel Bitonio could be a fine target.
