Missouri quarterback Drew Lock helped himself at the Senior Bowl, enough that the general consensus now seems to be that he’s a first-round pick. But which team will take him?

It could be the Broncos: G.M. John Elway is smitten with Lock, according to the Denver Post, which calls that the worst-kept secret at the Senior Bowl.

Elway’s interest in Lock didn’t start at the Senior Bowl. Elway attended the Arkansas-Missouri game in November, when Lock had an excellent game, passing for two touchdowns, running for two more and leading Missouri to a 38-0 win.

The Broncos have the 10th overall pick in the draft. If they like Lock as much as it appears, that could be his landing spot.
