Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson greets fans leaving the field after the Broncos preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys at Empower Field at Mile High August 13, 2022. Wilson did not play, but the Broncos won 17-7. What’s up, y’all? Been quite a week for the football club, eh? Russell Wilson informed of his eventual release Monday. Justin Simmons released Thursday. It’s going to be a different-looking team in 2024, that’s for sure.
The Broncos refuse to use the “R” word. It’s semantics. They are rebuilding. This reframes expectations and provides Siri Maps directions for each decision moving forward. They should draft a quarterback like J.J. McCarthy if he is available at 11 or 12. They cannot afford to keep sacrificing draft picks, but moving up one spot would be reasonable. Otherwise, trade back, take an edge rusher in the 20s and an offensive tackle in the second round with an acquired pick.
