What It Means:

Yahoo's Charles Robinson reported Sunday that Lynch has "lost every single practice session to Siemian," so it doesn't sound like the Broncos had much choice. Siemian was better than expected last season, but hardly had the looks of a multi-year answer at quarterback. It's also an open question how he will fare without former head coach Gary Kubiak, who molded Siemian to his quarterback-friendly system. He's only been in the league 16 months, but Lynch is already veering toward bust status.

numberFire's models expect Siemian to start under center for the Broncos this season, and we rank him 30th among fantasy quarterbacks entering the year. He's expected to complete 308.0-of-519.4 (59.3 percent) passes for 3,306.0 yards with 18.96 touchdowns and 14.3 interceptions in 2017.
