Former Denver Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib has made another prediction surrounding the team, and because of his last prediction, it deserves some attention.
About a month ago, Talib said that the Broncos would “have a new explosive player on offense” before the team acquired Jaylen Waddle from the Miami Dolphins via trade. Now, speaking with just as much confidence as he did then, Talib is suggesting that the Broncos are not done making big moves.
Speaking on a podcast along with former Broncos safety T.J. Ward and Skip Bayless, Talib said, “it might be the draft” when challenged by Bayless, who said he “keeps waiting for the bombshell to drop cause this man across from me over here keeps saying Denver’s gonna make another big move”.
“Come on Skip, you still don’t believe me? It might be on draft day… just know that”, said Talib.
Judging by the conviction in his voice, Talib doesn’t make this statement like he’s guessing. Instead, he says it like he knows something is going to happen. He doesn’t work for the Broncos, but he still has close ties to the organization. Could he be onto something?
Do Broncos have a big move planned for the NFL draft?
Of course, this kind of discussion leads to the obvious question: What would be a big move? This led to Josh Dover and Cecil Lammey of 104.3 The Fan addressing the situation. When asked by Dover what would be a big move, Lammey has some interesting thoughts.

Lammey’s immediate thought is a trade for Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts. If not Pitts, Lammey says it would have to be a trade into the first round.
“If Aqib is calling for a big splash again, it’s either moving into the first round, which, unless you’re surrendering (Riley) Moss and a pick next year or (Jonathon) Cooper and a pick next year… and again, I’m not saying that that’s what they’ll do, I’m not saying I’ve heard that’s what they’ll do, I’m just saying that big splash can only be categorized and you tell us, is Kyle Pitts that big splash? Because that’s what everyone thinks it is”, said Lammey.
Those are some interesting thoughts. Pitts’ name has been brought up in trade rumors for some time, but after the Falcons placed the franchise tag on him in February, he won’t be had cheaply.
Lammey’s idea of the Broncos giving up Riley Moss or Jonathon Cooper, along with a pick, in order to get into the first round of this draft raises even more eyebrows. Obviously, this is just speculation, but Lammey has a good pulse on the team and has a good idea of what the team could be considering.
Would the front office consider something like this? All things are possible once the draft kicks off and if a player starts to slide down the board, such as Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq, a trade like that could be kicked around.

Despite not having a first-round pick in the draft, the Broncos will be an interesting team to watch from the moment things kick off in Pittsburgh, as they are on the hunt for players to complete what they feel is a Super Bowl-caliber roster.
