I found this article on Finheaven. Its actually three trades this guy thinks should go down. I figured since one was a Bronco I would post it in case you havent seen it.
OLB Terrell Suggs (BAL) to the Denver Broncos
While this is definitely the most unlikely of the three trade scenarios, it's a move that definitely deserves thorough consideration.
Baltimore's unwillingness to negotiate a long-term deal with Terrell Suggs shows they've contemplated a life without the pass-rushing specialist. Already boasting the stingiest defense in the NFL, the Ravens have room to maneuver their talent.
Suggs is one of the most talented players on that defense, but can they afford to be greedy with their defense when rookie quarterback Joe Flacco needs offensive help? Listening to a trade for Suggs can allow the Ravens to build a successful offense around their new franchise quarterback.
More importantly, the Broncos' defense needs to get on the same page as their offense, and fast. Jay Cutler and his receivers are the core for the team's offensive future. Their ability to score from anywhere on the field is a positive, but a weak defense forces them to take shots more often than necessary.
Bringing in Suggs, a six-year veteran at the very young age of 25 will give the Broncos' defense an anchor for at least six more seasons. He's versatile, strong, dangerous, and everything the Broncos need to stay out of shootouts in games that should easily be won.
Giving Baltimore the two first-round draft picks mandated by the NFL for the services of a player with the franchise tag shouldn't cripple Denver's growth. Mike Shanahan and friends have been consistent in executing strong personnel moves over the years, and somehow manage to secure seemingly expensive talent with minimal salary-cap room.
