According to reports, the Denver Broncos want one of their big three to star in the 2024 NFL Draft. bad. It’s really bad.It’s unclear which of the Broncos’ trio (USC’s Caleb Williams, North Carolina’s Drake Maye and LSU’s Jayden Daniels) will be selected, but the only way to get the look is to go No. 1 overall. Owned by the Chicago Bears. The bears seem to have no intention of going down.
That would be a steep drop of 11 spots from Denver’s current position. But every team has its price. In this case, the price is almost incomprehensible. Bleacher Report’s Brad Gannon sees the Broncos’ “supposed return” to Chicago in a potential draft day blockbuster for QB1.
The Broncos don’t have a second-round pick this year, but they could get away with it by sending the rest of their Day 1 and Day 2 picks from this year’s and next year’s drafts to the Bears. That will be a huge price to pay because Russell Wilson is still on the roster (for now), but worse things have happened in this league. Estimated returns: choice no. 12 of 2024, 2025 first round pick, 2024 third round pick, 2025 second round pick, 2025 third round pick.
Gagnon’s prediction follows a report from longtime quarterback Tony Pauline that the Broncos are “interested in having their quarterback of the future” and could consider working with star quarterback Patrick Surtain II as a “last resort” to secure a signal caller. necessary. . This echoes a recent post by DenverSports.com’s Cecil Lammy, who said Denver manager Sean Payton plans to make a “big move” at the plate. “Don’t ask for compensation. Some say it doesn’t matter because SP isn’t waiting for a QB. He wants his man now,”
Lammy said Monday at the Senior Bowl.Pauline cautioned that such a drastic move is “highly unlikely” given the Broncos’ massive roster needs and the lack of picks to fill those needs due to the offseason deals of Payton and Russell Wilson. But there is absolutely no chance of that happening. Never say never.
