Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in Round 7, Pick 40: the Broncos steal Caldwell and grade out a B.

Somebody in the Round 7 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Broncos sat still while Jeff Caldwell, the No. 217 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They will need Graves to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick63 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
They barely believed it either: Anthony Hill Jr. still on the board at the 63rd overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick108 Rnd4 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Darrell Jackson Jr. at the Round 4 slot is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick111 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg at Round 4, Pick 11 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick125 Rnd4 Logan Jones
Taking Logan Jones in pick No. 125 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick170 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves in No. 170 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick198 Rnd6 Eric McAlister
Value with a capital V on Eric McAlister in the 198th pick, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick246 Rnd7 Daevin Hobbs
They reached a country mile for Daevin Hobbs at slot 246, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
They robbed the room for Jeff Caldwell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick257 Rnd7 Alan Herron
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Alan Herron. It fills a real need, too.
