Horse Tracks: Payton thrilled to ‘not be in the quarterback market’ this offseason

At the NFL Owners’ Meeting this week, it was quite clear that the Broncos’ brass is feeling a little less pressure this offseason.

No. 1 because they don’t have to find or draft a QB1 this year.

No. 2 because the QB they did find and draft turned out to be a huge rookie success.

“I appreciate not being in that quarterback market. That’s difficult,” head coach Sean Payton admitted during his presser. “Obviously there’s a lot of pressure to get that right. When you don’t have it right, it’s one of those positions where it can kind of consume you as an organization.
