Broncos Scout Draft QBs Amid Stidham Trade Buzz
22 Mar
Summary
- Broncos may trade backup QB Jarrett Stidham.
- Team targets developing a third-string quarterback.
- 2026 QB draft class considered weak with limited prospects.
The Denver Broncos face a decision regarding backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham, with reports indicating strong trade interest. As Stidham is in the final year of his contract, the team is also considering adding a developmental third-string quarterback to groom behind starter Bo Nix.
However, the 2026 quarterback draft class presents significant challenges. With a limited number of prospects ranked outside the top 100, finding a viable long-term backup will require considerable development from coach Sean Payton and his staff.
Several potential mid-to-late round prospects like Beck, Green, Robertson, Payton, Kubnik, Altmyer, and Daniels are being evaluated. Each presents a unique mix of strengths, such as athleticism and intelligence, alongside weaknesses like arm strength, accuracy, or inconsistent decision-making.
