As we roll into March and near free agency, the Denver Broncos are among the four teams that could land Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins.

John Elway and the Denver Broncos are currently looking for a quarterback that will hopefully put the team back into the Super Bowl contention window. All options will be explored. The big plan is to land Kirk Cousins. But they will not be the only team in the running.

It has been reported that the Arizona Cardinals, Minnesota Vikings, and New York Jets are in the running to land Kirk Cousins in free agency. The Denver Broncos will have some stiff competition for the Kirk Cousins sweepstakes.

I found it interesting that the Minnesota Vikings were in the running for him. Especially when they have three quarterbacks going into free agency. I believe they want to keep their options open during free agency. But I believe they could easily just sign one of the three quarterbacks they have.

For Arizona, Carson Palmer is not getting any younger. And the Jets have been trying to find a quarterback for what seems to be a long time. It is really going to depend on what Kirk Cousins is looking for.

Next: Lamar Jackson will not change positions

It seems that as far as opportunities are concerned, the Denver Broncos are the front runners. There is a solid defense, some playmakers on offense, and a winning attitude a mile above sea level. It could also depend on what Kirk Cousins is looking for in regards to pay days.

Right now, I could not see the Broncos being able to shell out a lot of money for him. The only way that happens is if the Broncos cut ties with some big contracts. And if the Jets are willing to fork over a lot of cash, I would just move on.

It is all up to Kirk Cousins. We will know where he lands soon.
