While it appears WR Brandon Marshall and the Broncos have come to a stalemate, with each side holding its ground as the team avoids giving in to Marshall's trade demand, sources say a trade is still possible if the team receives an offer to its liking. The problem is that few teams will be willing to put together an enticing package for Marshall, who is coming off hip surgery, has a history of off-field legal issues, which resulted in him being suspended for the first game of last season, and is demanding a lucrative long-term contract, even though he'll be a restricted free agent in 2010 if the league goes to an uncapped year. Marshall already has said goodbye to the team and its fans in a blog post on his Web site, but he has little leverage over the Broncos and most likely will remain in Denver, despite his best efforts to leave.
