Luke Wattenberg, Alex Forsyth, and Sam Mustipher: who becomes the Denver Broncos starting center?
are now looking for a replacement. Despite its financial situation relative to the salary cap, Denver is committed to maintaining a competitive team, which led to the decision not to retain Cushenberry.would make Cushenberry the second-highest-paid center in the NFL. Fortunately, the Broncos prepared for this situation, investing two draft picks in the position from 2022 to 2023. Let's examine these two draft picks, and the other candidate competing for Denver's starting center job.
It was one of the worst displays I've seen from an offensive lineman at the NFL level. It was a dismal showing and left a bad taste in the mouth of every Broncos fan. Forsyth was the 259th pick of the 2023 draft. He missed out much of the draft process with an injury, which many draft analysts attributed to his fall, which saw him plummet further in the draft than he had graded out, with many believing he could’ve been a late-Day 2, early-Day 3 pick. In the end, he nearly fell out of the draft before the Broncos selected the Oregon center.
All that aside, Forsyth has something the other two center options don’t: he's played with rookie first-round quarterback — and the presumptive starter — Bo Nix. Nix and Forsyth spent the 2022 season together at Oregon, with Forsyth snapping to Nix. That familiarity will play a part in the decision of head coach Sean Payton and O-line coach Zach Strief.
