Broncos mock draft: What happens if Denver aggressively pursues franchise quarterback?

It’s hard to envision what the future holds for the Broncos until they find an answer for the most important position on the football field.

The franchise has been doing its due diligence in evaluating this year’s class of quarterbacks. Broncos general manager George Paton attended North Carolina QB Drake Maye’s pro day. Head coach Sean Payton, who believes it’s “realistic” for Denver to trade up, said the team held a private workout for Michigan’s J.J. McCarthy after his pro day. Meanwhile, Washington’s Michael Penix Jr. took a top-30 visit to the Broncos facility.

Payton will do whatever it takes to get the player he desires, even if that means trading up in the draft.
