The closer we are to the 2021 NFL Draft (less than three weeks and counting), the more fascinating the Denver Broncos’ quarterback situation becomes.

  • They like Drew Lock and his potential
  • They want to upgrade the QB position and will explore all avenues (FA, Draft, trades)
  • They are open to taking a QB with their top pick in the 2021 NFL Draft
