Learning from past NFL drafts, it’s evident that raw physical talent doesn’t always translate to production. Quarterbacks often struggle in their rookie seasons, requiring time to adjust to the NFL level. Don’t expect early impact from offensive linemen, while pass-catchers have shown increasing productivity in recent years.
The Broncos have signed Zach Wilson to a $2.75 million contract, signaling their intention to groom him as a potential long-term quarterback option. Despite his disappointing tenure with the Jets, the Broncos believe Wilson possesses the skills to succeed in their system under head coach Sean Payton. While he is unlikely to play this year, Wilson’s performance could earn him consideration for the starting role in 2025 if the Broncos fail to acquire a quarterback they covet in the draft.
