Although the Broncos signed quarterback Case Keenum in free agency, ESPN Draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. still believes the Broncos won't pass up a quarterback with the fifth-overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft.
In his third mock draft of the draft season, Kiper has the Broncos selecting Oklahoma's Baker Mayfield, arguing "Denver can't pass up a guy it thinks could be the face of its franchise for at least a decade."
Mayfield's astronomical production in his senior season (43 passing touchdowns and just six interceptions) earned him the Heisman Trophy and helped position him in the tier of top quarterback prospects.
