Broncos' GM George Paton sees another key draft pick get massive contract

Denver Broncos' GM George Paton has seen yet another one of his key draft picks get a massive contract extension.

The GM took the team over in the 2021 NFL Offseason, replacing the legendary John Elway. He had called the Broncos a 'sleeping giant' at the time, but that giant continued to snooze for a couple of seasons.

However, it's not like Paton was a bad GM during that stretch. Yes, he whiffed on the QB and head coach, but he also laid a ton of groundwork for long-term success during those rougher periods. And now, with yet another draft pick of his getting paid, it's clear to see the vision.
