Broncos Wire podcast: Courtland Sutton’s status + NFL draft thoughts

• Sutton is skipping the voluntary part of offseason workouts because he’s not happy with his contract. Only $2 million is guaranteed this year and there’s no guarantees next year.

• Sutton has base salary of $13M in 2024 and $13.5M in 2015 but salary cap hits of $17.39M and $17.82M over the next two years.

• We love ya, Court, but read the room! After eating $53 million to cut Russell Wilson, I think the Broncos are far more likely to trade Sutton than give him a pay raise.

• Trade candidates: Steelers? Ravens? Patriots? Bills?

• Trade OT Garett Bolles to Patriots for 2nd-round pick
• Trade WR Courtland Sutton to Cardinals for 3rd-round pick
• Trade pick No. 147 (Round 5) to Saints for TE Taysom Hill 

• Round 1, pick 12: OL Troy Fautanu, Washington
• Round 2, pick 34: QB Michael Pratt, Tulane
• Round 3, pick 76: DL T’Vondre Sweat, Texas (*DWI)
• Round 3, pick 90: CB Kris Abrams-Draine, Missouri (via trade)
• Round 4, pick 121: OLB Mohamed Kamara, Colorado State
• Round 5, pick 136: RB Isaac Guerendo, Louisville
• Round 5, pick 145: WR Luke McCaffrey, Rice
• Round 6, pick 203: OLB Jalyx Hunt, Houston Christian
• Round 6, pick 207: LB Jordan Magee, Temple

• Teams have called about potential trade up/down

• Don’t want to force a QB at 12, BPA with first pick

• Team seemed unconcerned about Sutton’s absence

Ryan and I will return next week to react to Denver’s draft class.
