Share this: The 2017 NFL Draft still is several months away, but preparations for the first round are well underway in scouting offices around the league. One interesting focus of this draft class will be on the quarterbacks, mainly because of how weak the group is. There aren’t any can’t-miss prospects like Andrew Luck or even Jameis Winston, but three QBs — Notre Dame’s DeShone Kizer, Clemson’s Deshaun Watson and North Carolina’s Mitch Trubisky — likely will be picked in Round 1.

That’s Patriots all day,” Broncos cornerback Chris Harris said after the game, according to The Denver Post. Denver’s defense is renowned for hitting quarterbacks in the mouth and shutting down opposing aerial attacks with its exceptional secondary.

Broncos’ Derek Wolfe Clarifies Story About Saying He’d Eat Tom Brady’s Kids
Tom Brady’s children are safe. Denver Broncos safety T.J. Ward relayed a story back in March about teammate Derek Wolfe telling an opposing player he’d eat his kids. At the time, Ward thought Brady had been the subject of Wolfe’s Mike Tyson-esque threat. But it turns out Ward actually mixed up the New England Patriots quarterback with another Pro Bowl signal caller. “OK, so there is a story behind that,” Wolfe explained on a recent episode of Barstool Sports’ “The Life.” “That was not directed at Tom Brady.
