Comments Stacy Revere/Getty Images The Denver Broncos are reportedly the team most interested in acquiring Aaron Rodgers if the Green Bay Packers trade their disgruntled quarterback.  "The Denver Broncos continue to be the team I hear that are going to be the most interested [in Aaron Rodgers] and are going to put the most in front of the Green Bay Packers to try to make this trade go down," ESPNs Dianna Russini said Tuesday on Get Up.  The Broncos already traded for Teddy Bridgewater this o...

Broncos show no love for offensive tackles once again For the fourth straight draft, Denver failed to draft an offensive tackle. Isaiah J. Downing-USA TODAY Sports The Broncos used the 20th pick of the 2017 draft to take an offensive tackle - Garett Bolles, who was the first tackle drafted that year. And he has finally started to play like a first-round talent. since Bolles (unless you count Dalton Risner, who has not played a snap at tackle in the NFL). That means that there have been 103 of...

The major parts of George Paton’s first offseason are now in the book. The Broncos signed a couple of players in free agency, brought back most of their own on one year contracts, and threw a bunch of darts in the NFL Draft. Questions remain, but there is little doubt this Broncos roster is better than the one that finished the 2020 season. How much better remains an open debate.

Its time to grade the three draft picks Broncos GM George Paton made on Day 2 of the NFL draft.

But, first ... The Broncos don’t even know who, when and where they pick in the first round and the what and the why of the 49ers at No. 3. The NFL draft will begin at 6 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time. Beginning with the Jaguars, each team will have a maximum of 10 minutes to make a selection. Jacksonville and the New York Jets could announce their choices — Trevor Lawrence and Zach Wilson — within seconds, but the two franchises, the league and the networks will drag out the drama. The Br...

Photo by Corey Perrine/Getty Images As with all of these draft profiles, I obviously don’t know what George Paton is planning for in the first round. There’s just no harm in speculating or sizing up the options. Now that my disclaimer’s out of the way, we’re going to look at Rashawn Slater, the Northwestern offensive tackle who is expected to be a first-round pick (possibly even a top 10). With the Broncos going at #9, choosing him is an option. This is assuming they don’t go for Oreg...

To catch you up to speed, the introduction of general manager George Paton simply summarized the state of Denver’s organization. “George Patrick, er, George Paton—to everybody” former general manager John Elway so eloquently stated when i...

What would an offseason be without such division? One side is OK with George Paton selecting a quarterback in the NFL Draft. The other is OK running it back with Drew Lock. That also means they want no part of a QB in the Draft. Neither side is right nor wrong, but the point remains the same — the Broncos are a quarterback away. Whether it’s a rookie or Lock, the play from that position must improve. Is that the only issue for this team? Of course not. But it’s also the biggest. Improve...
