The Denver Broncos are interested in Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford, but they have their doubts that he is actually available.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the Broncos came away from their discussion with the Eagles thinking Philly is not going to trade Bradford to them or anyone else.
Denver does not expect Philadelphia to trade Sam Bradford to Broncos or to any team, per sources. Broncos now mulling other QB options.

As of now, the only quarterback on Denver’s roster with NFL experience is Mark Sanchez. While they could roll the dice with him and lean heavily on the run game and their dominant defense, it’s clear John Elway is looking for another experienced signal caller.
Bradford wants to be traded now that the Eagles are expected to select either Jared Goff or Carson Wentz with the No. 2 overall pick in the draft. A lot can change when the draft begins Thursday night, and it’s still possible that the Broncos could land their top target. If they are unable to swing a trade, signing Brian Hoyer could be another option.
