Being that Paton and OC Pat Shurmur weren't in the Broncos organization when John Elway drafted Drew Lock and the Broncos tried to trade with the Lions for Matthew Stafford,  I don't think there's enough of a comfort level with Lock to satisfy Paton.

Drew Lock realistically could have a breakout year, if given the opportunity.  Whether he will be given the opportunity remains to be seen.

That is true,, Mac Jones is a possibility there and I think would be a great fit.  If the don't take a QB I think they go Micha Parsons or Jalen Collins.  One of those MLBs could be the difference maker for that defense imo

Personally, I have a feeling Mac Jones is gonna be chosen before Trey Lance. I look at Carolina. Matt Rhule coached Jones in the Senior Bowl and from what I read, he couldn't say enough nice things about the kid. I think he's their target, if Wilson and Fields are gone. Lance is just too much of an unknown. I could see Lawrence, Wilson, Fields and Jones all gone by the Broncos selection. Would the Broncos take a flyer on Lance or would they wait until the 2nd or even 3rd round and try for someone like Kyle Trask? It'll be interesting to see how this QB thing shakes out.
