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

Being that George Paton worked under Vikings GM  Rick Spielman and the Vikings history under Spielman is often going for a potential Home Run player ( with higher risk ), it's easy to envision Micah Parsons as the Broncos selection with pick # 9. That much more if the Broncos trade for a QB ( w/ o pick # 9 being in the deal ) that Paton considers starting caliber.
