The Denver Broncos look like the class of the NFL in 2014, dispatching Super Bowl contenders left and right en route to winning six of their first seven games. The Broncos likely won't make a huge splash before Tuesday's trade deadline. However, one name does keep cropping up in trade rumors.

Who could be on the move? Find out the answer to that question and more in this Broncos Rumors Roundup.

Tony Carter On His Way Out Of Denver?

While cornerback Tony Carter has lost a major role in the Broncos' secondary rotation, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports that Carter is garnering major trade interest around the league:

The New York Giants and Chicago Bears are two teams rumored to be looking diligently for secondary help, so don't be surprised if Carter is playing in the NFC by Tuesday.

Demaryius Thomas Contract Update

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Denver Broncos do not expect to re-sign either WR Demaryius Thomas or TE Julius Thomas before the season ends.

In fact, it appears Denver will suspend all contract talk until the offseason and deal with both stars' respective free agencies then. Schefter believes that could be a dangerous play for the Broncos:

The Broncos have only one franchise tag to use between the two, meaning that if Denver cannot re-sign one Thomas between the end of the season and the start of free agency, the other one will be allowed to hit the market and leave if he receives a better offer.

Don't be surprised if contract talks reopen as soon as the season comes to an end.
