Drew Lock

I'd really like to see Lock step into his throws a bit more, as it almost always seems like he's leaning back when he delivers the ball. He does keep the ball up by his chest much of the time and has an incredibly quick release, but seems to aim his passes rather than let his body naturally sling it in. His offensive line play allowed him to pat the ball quite often, which could be an issue because he seems late to respond to pressure. He had the ball stripped twice versus Georgia and even took a safety against Alabama. There are some physical traits that are great and his arm strength is obvious, but he's far from a can't-miss prospect. He simply relies too much on his arm at times.

Drew Lock selected No. 42 overall by Denver Broncos

The Denver Broncos have selected Missouri QB Drew Lock with the 42nd overall pick.

Fantasy Impact

Lock to the Broncos was a pairing rumored together since the combine. And although the Broncos traded for Joe Flacco, there remained a need for a quarterback in Denver. After all, Flacco is 34 and is on the back end of his career. With Flacco slated as the immediate starter, Lock will have time to develop, barring injury to the QB1.
