Horsin' Around: Previewing the Combine, and what to expect at QB Feb 24, 2019

Show notes

The Ford Path to the Draft is under way! Andrew Mason and Ryan Edwards of Orange and Blue 760 are headed to Indianapolis, but first, they take a look ahead to the Scouting Combine -- especially in light of the reported trade for Baltimore QB Joe Flacco. How will last year's experience guide the Broncos in this year's draft process when they look at the QBs? Who could be the fifth QB off the board -- because it gets wide open after Duke's Daniel Jones? Could Jones be a first-rounder? And if the Broncos go for a developmental QB, which one could be the best fit? Ryan and Mase tackle it all.

"It's amazing to think about all the what-ifs," Edwards says.
