Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB FutureB
Grand theft in pick 207: the Broncos steal Davis and grade out a B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Isaiah Davis tumbling to the Broncos in Round 6, Pick 32 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The cost of the Rouse reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They left with linebacker solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Michael Penix Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Michael Penix Jr. at pick No. 36 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick40 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
No edge and no loss on Xavier Legette in slot 40; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
A quiet steal in the 67th pick: Jermaine Burton for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick76 Rnd3 Cade Stover
Cade Stover at Round 3, Pick 12 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick121 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster at the 121st overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick136 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones at the Round 4 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick145 Rnd5 James Williams
A linebacker of that caliber at No. 145 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick147 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse in pick 147 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick203 Rnd6 Fabien Lovett
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Fabien Lovett in the 203rd overall pick, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick207 Rnd6 Isaiah Davis
Circle this one: Isaiah Davis at slot 207 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
