If the Broncos do want to get a QB, the Raiders pick at 7 might be appealing. Jacksonville might go after a QB so the Broncos would have to get ahead of them (at 8) and with Shannahan out of the picture, dealing between the Broncos and Raiders isn't forbidden anymore.

Personally, I would love it if the Raiders got out of the #7 spot and down in to the 12-15 spot. I don't want them to take Crabtree or Machlin and they have so many holes that an extra pick would be great.
I just want the Broncos to make 2 picks. Would prefer neither was a QB, but there is a lot of buzz about their interest in Sanchez now.
