NFL insider James Palmer: Who COULD the Broncos trade for besides Jonathan Taylor?
Tony Pollard could offer the Broncos an explosive backfield upgrade at a lower cost than Jonathan Taylor—but a struggling Titans team may still have reasons to keep him. On The Drive, Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay explore why Denver’s potential alternative comes with complications of its own.
The conversation weighs Pollard’s production, the proposed savings in draft capital and salary, and what he could bring to Denver’s offense. If Indianapolis demands a first-round pick for Taylor, how aggressively should the Broncos pursue another option?
Tennessee’s decision may come down to more than its record. The discussion centers on the Titans’ need to evaluate Cam Ward and whether removing an established offensive weapon would make it harder to assess their young quarterback. A draft pick might help the rebuild, but would the return justify taking support away from Ward?
The guys also consider how competition from other teams could complicate Denver’s search. These are potential trade scenarios—not confirmation that Pollard is available or that either team has agreed on a price. For the Broncos, finding the right player is only part of the challenge; convincing another team to move him could be just as difficult.
