Broncos rookie quarterback Tim Tebow is already moving up the team's depth chart. The Denver Post reports that Tebow has surpassed second-year man Tom Brandstater for the No. 3 spot. Kyle Orton and Brady Quinn are still ahead of the former Gator.

Free-agent left tackle Flozell Adams recently visited the Broncos, a league source said Friday. Adams has also remained in contact with a number of NFL teams. The Cowboys released Adams, a five-time Pro Bowl selection, last month.

Broncos quarterback Brady Quinn has reiterated the fact that he wants to start this coming season. Quinn appeared on The Score in Denver with Armstrong and Shapiro this week. "That mindset never changes," Quinn said when asked if he wants to start. "I'm a quarterback in the NFL. I wanna play, I wanna start, I wanna have a long, successful career, and try to win a bunch of games and a bunch of Super Bowls here in Denver. That's always your mindset. If it's not your mindset you shouldn't be on this team I know that much and you shouldn't be on any other team in the NFL."

A Broncos team official says that the team never shopped quarterback Kyle Orton. There were reports earlier this offseason that Denver put Orton on the block. "Broncos official texted on report Denver had shopped QB Kyle Orton: 'Kyle Orton Has NEVER been available or discussed. Ever! Period,' " ESPN Insider Adam Schefter wrote on his Twitter page.

Broncos quarterback Kyle Orton has been cool under the heat of controversy, a stance that may have saved him from a trade. Denver acquired Brady Quinn in a trade with Cleveland and then drafted Tim Tebow in the first round of last month's NFL Draft. The Denver Post writes that Orton has a strong presence over the team's offense, which may be the reason why Josh McDaniels and Company will hold onto the veteran.

Brian Westbrook may decide on a new team within the next week, according to the NFL Network's Jason La Canfora. La Canfora said it's "very likely" a deal will be done in the next seven days. Westbrook has visited with the Rams, Redskins and Broncos.

Broncos defensive end Elvis Dumervil is working out at the team's passing camp despite the lack of a contract. He signed a waiver allowing him to participate in this week's camp. "I didn't have to, but at the end of the day I'm going to be a Bronco in 2010 and I wanted to come out and support the organization and teammates and get acclimated with the new guys," Dumervil said Monday. "We have a couple tweaks terminology-wise as far as defense so I don't want to fall behind mentally." Dumervil is a restricted free agent.

Mark Kiszla of the Denver Post believes that Broncos coach Josh McDaniels could be on the hot seat if the team doesn't win this coming season. Denver was 8-8 in McDaniels' first season on the job, but they made headlines with his aggressive behavior and comments. "Anything less than winning the AFC West this year must be considered a failure by the Broncos," Kiszla writes.

Brian Westbrook met with the Broncos on Thursday and head coach Josh McDaniels says that the free-agent running back is in no hurry to sign a contract. "We had a great meeting with him," McDaniels told the Denver Post's Lindsay Jones. "He's not in a hurry. He's a talented player, but certainly we wanted to do our research, so we got him in here. We had an opportunity to speak with him. He's a great person, a great football player and he's healthy now." Westbrook has been linked to the Broncos, Packers, Rams and Redskins.

Elvis Dumervil is expected to attend the start of the team's first voluntary organized team activities Monday, the Denver Post reported. Dumervil is still an unsigned free agent. "I think we'll see Elvis on Sunday, and we're looking forward to that," Broncos coach Josh McDaniels told The Post on Thursday.
