Denver Broncos – CB – Minkah Fitzpatrick

The Broncos needed to address quarterback and are spending a lot on Case Keenum but Keenum may not be the future. It is very possible that Denver drafts a quarterback here but they may go with a mid-round quarterback instead.

The 2nd and 3rd level quarterbacks such as Mason Rudolph, Kyle Lauletta, and Luke Falk are all generating a lot of buzz. Denver could see value in developing that QB behind Keenum for two years.

What the Broncos do need is cornerback help after sending Aqib Talib to the Los Angeles Rams. Fitzpatrick can fill that hole pretty easily and is along with Denzel Ward one of the top two corners in this years draft.

Denver also could trade out of this position. The Arizona Cardinals and New Orleans Saints are both possibilities. So are the Dolphins.
