Drew Lock selected by Denver Broncos in second round of NFL draft

A night later than some expected, the Broncos drafted quarterback Drew Lock.

One selection after taking Kansas State offensive lineman Dalton Risner, the Broncos traded up to No. 42 to take Lock.

Last month, the Broncos acquired Joe Flacco from the Baltimore Ravens.

The Broncos passed on Lock during Thursday’s first round but pounced when he was still on the board Friday night.

Lock made a pre-draft visit to the Broncos and general manager John Elway watched him in person last November against Arkansas.

Lock, 22, started 46 games for the Tigers and threw 99 touchdowns and 39 interceptions.
