After using their first-round draft pick to select Oregon quarterback Bo Nix this spring, the Denver Broncos later added two wide receivers. First, the Broncos picked Oregon receiver Troy Franklin in the fourth round, then they added Utah’s Devaughn Vele in the seventh round.

A full-strength, lights-out defense can only take the Broncos so far while the offense consistently underperforms. At the same time, Broncos Country has to strive to stay patient with the development of a rookie quarterback. Allow me to break it down.
