The Denver Broncos met with Tulane quarterback Michael Pratt at the NFL combine last week, according to a report from KUSA-TV’s Mike Klis.
Pratt (6-2, 216 pounds) completed 60.6% of his passes for 9,611 yards with 90 touchdowns against 26 interceptions in four years (46 games) with the Green Wave.
The Broncos should be pretty familiar with Pratt now after previously meeting with him multiple times at the Senior Bowl earlier this year.
While coaching the New Orleans Saints, Sean Payton held several training camp practices at Tulane University and he knows former Green Wave head coach Willie Fritz. And perhaps even more notable: Tulane offensive line coach Dan Roushar coached under Payton with the Saints from 2013-2021.
Between his connections to the school and his in-person meetings with the prospect, Payton should know everything he needs to know about Pratt. Most mock drafts have Pratt going off the board in the third or fourth round. Draft Wire had the Broncos picking Pratt in the third round of a mock draft earlier this offseason.
Denver currently holds six draft picks, including first-, third- and fourth-round selections. The NFL draft will be held in Detroit from April 25-27.
