For the last few days, the quarterback everyone has been linking to Denver was Colin Kaepernick, but after news broke this morning that he would rather play in Cleveland with Hugh Jackson, the Broncos may have been urged to go in another direction.

But is this where it stops? Is Sanchez the starting quarterback Day 1?

Maybe Sanchez is just a safety blanket in case John Elway can’t get a deal done with Kaepernick, Ryan Fitzpatrick or whomever he is targeting. Or maybe Sanchez is a guy Elway believes can excel behind this defense and within this organization.
