Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Broncos, and a B to prove it.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Broncos reached some 98 spots for Eric Gentry, and value like that does not grow back.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Klare pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Linebacker is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In pick No. 30 they get a three-down second-level presence, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Omar Cooper Jr.
Good price on Omar Cooper Jr. in slot 62, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick94 Rnd3 Max Klare
Max Klare slid further than he should have, and the 94th overall pick is lovely value for the tight end. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick108 Rnd4 Mike Washington Jr.
No edge and no loss on Mike Washington Jr. in Round 4, Pick 8; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore at pick 130 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick170 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Aaron Graves well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick246 Rnd7 John Michael Gyllenborg
John Michael Gyllenborg at slot 246 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick256 Rnd7 Luke Altmyer
Nice patience on Luke Altmyer, who had no business lasting to the 256th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick257 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
They left a pile of value on the table to take Eric Gentry this early at the Round 7 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
