in March, the Broncos dealt two first-round picks, two second-round picks, a fifth-round pick, quarterback Drew Lock, defensive lineman Shelby Harris and tight Noah Fant to the Seahawks for nine-time Pro Bowl quarterback Russell Wilson. With Wilson on board, the Broncos will hope for Pro Bowls to come as well as Super Bowls.

Look, when you screw up the drafting of QBs like Denver has done... you pay the price to get one when the time arises.
Drew Lock, Harris and Fant are all replaceable guys. The picks they gave up are the price you pay to put a capable QB on the field. Denver didn't deplete their draft options in this past draft.
Now, in the 2023 draft... yeah, it's gonna sting not having a pick in the first 2 rounds, but if Wilson proves to be the player they hope he is - it's worth it and they have 2 R3 picks, 5 total.
It's what you have to do when you do things like bypass Josh Allen.
