Here it is Broncos Country. This will be where I think the Denver Broncos plan to look at quarterback. While the team did bring back Kevin Hogan on a one year deal, I do not think he will be the long term answer. He is more of a serviceable backup.

I can see the Broncos using this as a chance to groom a late round quarterback to take the reigns in about three or four years. Stidham has all the tools to become a future star in the NFL.

He certainly has the potential to become a solid starter. I believe having a few years to learn from Joe Flacco can go a long way.
