The Denver Broncos are often seen as the prime candidate to trade for NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers if the Green Bay Packers make him available.

However, the Broncos are leery of the cost of such a trade, reports Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio, citing a league source.

Industry belief is the Packers would seek three first-round picks and a second-round selection for Rodgers, according to Florio. Then there's the matter of financially compensating the 37-year-old, who reportedly declined an offer from Green Bay that would have made him the highest-paid player in the league.

However, Rodgers and star wideout Davante Adams appeared to declare their intention to take one last shot at a championship together when they shared an image of Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen in a possible homage to "The Last Dance" on Saturday.
