With the NFL Draft only hours away, Broncos fans are running through final scenarios of who may be the selection.
In an interview with Eric Goodman and Les Shapiro of Mile High Sports AM 1340 | FM 104.7, Orlovsky spoke about the high-profile quarterbacks in the draft — but wasn’t afraid to give some love for lineman in the trenches as well.
“There’s two guys that I would say are head and shoulders above everybody else in this draft class. Sam Darnold and Josh Rosen,” Orlovsky mentioned, who also touched on the need to find a ‘franchise changing’ player when you’re picking that early in the draft.
“If you’re going to take a guy early. No matter what position you want him to be a game changing and franchise changing. Especially when you look at the quarterback position that means that they’ve got to do things with their game that you can’t coach.”
Orlovsky however did have high-praise for the offensive lineman out of Notre Dame in Quenton Nelson, who is expected to be selected within the first ten picks in the NFL Draft.
“When you have a guy on your offensive line like Quenton Nelson, all four other guys are better,” Orlovsky said.
“Everyone else has to get better. Because Quenton Nelson is going to put stuff things on tape, that he’s going to humiliate other human beings on tape.”
