Broncos Eye Aggressive Moves in NFL Draft for Quarterback

Denver's quest for a franchise quarterback intensifies under Sean Payton, with potential trades up in the draft being explored.

The Denver Broncos, led by new head coach Sean Payton, are actively exploring options to select a quarterback early in the 2024 NFL Draft, with a particular focus on trading up for a higher pick.
General Manager George Paton and Payton have shown interest in a group of draft-eligible quarterbacks, excluding Caleb Williams, who is expected to be the Bears' No. 1 pick.
The Broncos are considering various strategies for the draft, including trading up with the Cardinals for the No. 4 pick, trading down to later in the first round, or selecting a player from another position if they stay at their current spot.
Denver's quarterback room currently lacks depth, increasing the urgency to acquire a promising quarterback to compete with Jarrett Stidham for the starting position.
Analysts and insiders highlight the Broncos' motivation to find a new quarterback, contrasting with other teams like the Las Vegas Raiders, and emphasize the high stakes of Payton's mission to find the next franchise quarterback.
