2017 NFL Mock Draft: 1st-Round Projections after Week 3

The fact that Trevor Siemian is starting over Paxton Lynch worries me. If Lynch eventually gets the chance to start for the Denver Broncos and plays well, this pick isn’t going to be a quarterback. However, if Siemian keeps playing or Lynch struggles as a starter, they might want to search for another quarterback in the first round.

Denver isn’t going to get Kizer or Watson, but they could find themselves with a chance to land Miami’s Brad Kaaya. The argument could be made that even Kaaya is more impressive than any of the quarterbacks in last year’s draft.

Kaaya has a smooth throwing motion with a tight spiral and pretty consistent ball placement. He can make the wrong reads and tends to struggle with pressure in his face, but can make some big plays with his arm.

Again, there’s a pretty good chance Kaaya doesn’t wind up in Denver. However, if you give the Miami prospect receivers like Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders, he could be a lot of fun to watch.
