Now with the NFL combine in the rearview mirror, the focus is on the NFL draft as teams allocate a ton of time and effort into studying who could be future difference-makers for their team. The Denver Broncos are charged with that same quest, but their path to finding these difference-makers will be more difficult than others. Through many trades, the Broncos lack the necessary amount of premium picks — only having two selections in the top 100 — that it would usually take to kick off a rebuild. That said, this is exactly what George Paton and Sean Payton signed up for, so it’s hard to summon too much pity for them.
