In fact, according to the Denver Post, the job is anyone's to win, even second-year quarterback Trevor Siemian:
I'd give slight edge to Sanchez. Before though I thought he had to lose the job. Now he has to win it in camp https://t.co/co3Pq77W0z

As for first-round pick Paxton Lynch, Renck noted it's setting up to be a "redshirt year," where Denver will groom him this year and position him as the starter next year.

Tim Tebow was rumored to have the advantage even through the preseason last season, but Sanchez still won out in the end in Philly.
We'll see if he has what it takes to overcome what would be a massive upset in the eyes of many in Denver.
