The Denver Broncos selected Arizona State quarterback Brock Osweiler with the 57th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft.

Fantasy analysis: Osweiler gets the benefit of learning behind Peyton Manning and having the ability to pick the brain of John Elway. The ASU product won't see the field for the next few years, unless Manning suffers a setback.

Osweiler has no immediate fantasy value, even if he were to start a few games this year. He is a very raw prospect and needs a lot of technical refinement in his mechanics. His long-term worth to fantasy owners is questionable, but you will have plenty of time to evaluate him if all goes well in Denver.
