I remember when Trevor Siemian was all the rage. 7th round draft pick, he burst upon the scene in 2016, including a 132 QB rating and AFC Offensive Player of the Week for his first road game. He made the Pro Bowl that year as an alternate. He was the next big thing. Head coach changed next year and by mid-season he was replaced. Traded and continued to decline. Signed with a myriad other teams for his potential and never again reached those heights of that first year.

I saw him play a few weeks ago with the New York Jets and he was terrible.

Yes, if he continues as he is doing (and Siemian was good his entire first year starting -- knock on wood with Browning), Browning will have suitors. But this could also  be a perfect setup for him as it is right now.

Broncos went 8-8 that year coming off a SB win. They were winning in spite of Siemian not because of.  They still had Von Miller and Bradley Chubb on the Dline  Along with D Thomas Decker and Welker at WR Before Manning came around roster was good enough to win a playoff game with Tim Tebow at QB. Similar Comp to Siemian would be our own current backup AJ Mccarron
