Was Noah Fant a mistake for the Broncos?
When the Denver Broncos made the move down to the 20th pick in the draft, they took Noah Fant, and most people were thrilled. Broncos Country has been pining for a weapon at tight end, and this could be the answer to those prayers. However, PFF’s Mike Renner said on 1st and 10 on Orange and Blue 760 that he was not impressed with the pick.
When he joined Ryan Edwards, Andrew Mason, and Steve Atwater he was immediately asked about his position. In his explanation he mentioned that Fant was, “... more of a gadget weapon at this point...” who won’t have the impact of players like George Kittle or Travis Kelce right away.
