Is it going to happen this year?

We don't know.

That's the nature of the NFL business.

It's wildly unpredictable, but this is the operating process in which Sean and George have...

are going into with the mindset like, hey, like we are still planning on competing.

We're still planning to win games.

We plan to win more than eight games next season.

It may be hard for the fan base and for a lot of people to see right now, but they're going to make moves that make that a little bit more likely in their opinion.

And then the rest is going to have to be about performance and obviously how they do calling plays, you know, as a coaching staff and whether or not, you know, they can keep guys healthy.

How do they structure the offense and the defense?

How can they get better performances from guys who need to step up this year?

They didn't have a great year in 2023.

Like there are so many different factors that we have to go into this, but ultimately the foundation of Broncos country needs to keep in mind is that this draft right here, in my opinion, I have a strong feeling about it is going to be the draft where Sean Payton says we're

This is our foundation going forward.

And what we do from this point on is to build around who we've got in this year's draft because he doesn't really have a quarterback he's tied to in this situation as well that's currently on Denver's roster.

And I think that gives them a lot of flexibility.

So, hey, if you can do that trade-down scenario that you're alluding to here, I think it puts the Broncos in a better spot, to be honest with you.

going forward well and how might that pan out broncos country if denver is looking to trade up would that be the wise move for them at this point in time if it means mortgaging future assets after the events of this week of obviously trading for zach wilson we'll debate that much more here on today's brand new episode locked on broncos
