Jarrett Stidham

Stidham is technically the incumbent starter in Denver, but it’s just a matter of time until Bo Nix, the 12th overall pick in this year’s draft, takes over. And even if Nix takes longer than expected to develop, Stidham may have to contend with Zach Wilson, for whom the Broncos traded in April. Any scenario is plausible for Week 1, from starting to being the third-string QB. Stidham started Denver's final two games of last season amid the Russell Wilson benching fiasco and did not impress. He was on target with just 65.2 percent of his attempts -- 50th among 53 QBs with at least 60 attempts -- and completed just two of his 10 throws of 20-plus yards. If Stidham is under center come Week 1, he may have even less to work with than he had last season after WR Jerry Jeudy was traded to the Browns. Courtland Sutton is still around, though, and the Broncos signed Josh Reynolds, who will compete with second-year pro Marvin Mims and rookie fourth-round pick Troy Franklin. Stidham has simply adequate arm strength and doesn’t run much, so he'll need help from his supporting cast and coach Sean Payton just to have value in two-QB leagues if he ends up starting.
