$15 million per is the starting point.

Technically, Trevor is under contract through 2018... if he plays like he did last week and continues to be consistent and improves, maybe they give him an extension early. And, if that's the case - he will have earned it.
If not, then yeah - they're in a bidding war for whichever name the can go find. But, they're not at that point.
It's not realistic to think Trevor will account for 3 TDs a game, but if he starts all the games and they have a record above .500 and his stats are in the high 3k passing yards with 25 TDs and 12 INTs... that's pretty solid and on par with what he would have had in 2016 had he started all 16 games.

I've never said it wasn't a weird advantage they seem to get... do I think it's because the league loves Denver or they're somehow doing something nefarious to get those games early? No. I think it's equally a disadvantage considering ideally, it would be more advantageous to have a slew of home games late in the season in that altitude when it's cold and snowing.
So, yeah... maybe they get out to a better start with the home games early, but it catches up to them. I'd much rather have balance with the home and away. But, many here act as if that won't catch up to them if they're truly a bad team.
