ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – Drew Lock has, up to this point, pretty much played quarterback his way.
And why not? It worked fine. He slung his way to 12,193 yards at Missouri, 99 touchdowns and a fair amount of did-you-see-that throws. And the Denver Broncos liked all of that enough to select him in the second round of April’s NFL draft as the team’s next candidate to be the homegrown quarterback prospect the team hasn’t had (except for Tim Tebow’s half-season festival in 2011) since Jay Cutler was traded in 2009.
The Broncos want to develop a homegrown prospect, something they haven't done well.
