Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Marshall, the Broncos' top receiver, is coming off back-to-back 100-catch seasons and hip surgery. In the final year of a four-year contract that would pay him $2.198 million this season, Marshall is seeking an extension that suits his level of production. ...

Denver radio station 850KOA, advised listeners that Marshall requested a trade during that meeting. Good luck with that.

Stay tuned.
