If the 2023 season ended today, the Denver Broncos would own the 4th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Obviously, the team is hoping to finish with a better record and actually make some noise as the season progresses, but the reality of this season (so far, at least) is that the Broncos are much more likely to be picking near the top-five overall. And if that's the case, the Denver Broncos will likely add a premier, blue-chip-level prospect. This year's NFL Draft class is deep at a number of position groups, and just about all of them benefit the Denver Broncos with their present areas of need (QB, WR, OT, EDGE, DL). If the Broncos finish the 2023 season with a top-five pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, they would guarantee themselves a prospect that could absolutely help turn the franchise around rather quickly. And it just so happens that they might be able to make Hall of Fame QB Peyton Manning proud with their top pick. Let's look at a 2024 NFL mock draft scenario in which the Broncos are picking 4th utilizing the NFL Mock Draft Database simulator.
