Matt Miller went absolutely crazy with a sample 7 round NFL bet. All 257 choices in one place, a lot to digest. For the Denver Broncos, his strategy was even more interesting, and we want to take a look at those picks and tear them apart. I saw the Broncos pick up the phone and send Arizona the no.
for 4 to get QB4. I think it would take something like the 12th pick, the 2025 1st pick, and the 2026 1st pick. The deal is structured similarly to the 49ers’ 2021 deal with Trey Lance, and yes, it’s an expensive trade package. But when Broncos coach Sean Payton gets his quarterback, no one cares much about the cost of getting him. Meanwhile, the Cardinals would have multiple first basemen in 2024, 2025 and 2026.
The compensation for moving up just eight spots was a king’s ransom and could make or break the franchise next year. Denver would send three first-round picks in a deal similar to what the San Francisco 49ers traded in 2021, moving from No. 12 to No. 3 with the Miami Dolphins, so the comparison is pretty close to what Denver needs. go for that trade.Honestly, Denver probably needs more than three first-round picks.
The 49ers also sent the fourth and third picks along with their first three picks. Hopefully, the Broncos can keep some picks, but with the demand at quarterback, that’s highly unlikely.What if they get a franchise quarterback? Who cares… speaking of choice. Michigan J.J. McCarthy is Sean Payton’s guy in this scenario.He started things off with a big trade between the Broncos and Arizona Cardinals for the fourth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft..
