Nobody dealt better than the Broncos this weekend: A-. You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Broncos did exactly that with Eyabi Okie-Anoma in No. 207. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A-.
That Jackson pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The Broncos paired the rookies with proven help, T.J. Slaton leading the way.
The roster is better shaped than it was, with linebacker chief among the fixes.
Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In the 17th pick they get a matchup problem out wide, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick46
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 46th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick65
Rnd3
Keon Coleman
They will replay Keon Coleman at pick No. 65 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick76
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
Taking Kingsley Suamataia in No. 76 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.
Pick103
Rnd4
Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in Round 4, Pick 3 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick117
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
Steal is underselling it; Khyree Jackson at slot 117 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick121
Rnd4
Michael Pratt
Michael Pratt in No. 121 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126
Rnd4
Ray Davis
Ray Davis slipping to slot 126 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick140
Rnd5
Justin Rogers
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Justin Rogers. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick145
Rnd5
Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones in the Round 5 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick147
Rnd5
Roger Rosengarten
They let Roger Rosengarten come to them and pounced at Round 5, Pick 11. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick151
Rnd5
Tip Reiman
Tip Reiman at pick 151 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick191
Rnd6
Dillon Johnson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Dillon Johnson in the 191st overall pick, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick203
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
A tidy little value on Joe Milton III in the 203rd pick, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
Pick207
Rnd6
Eyabi Okie-Anoma
Value said wait; Eyabi Okie-Anoma in pick No. 207 says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick220
Rnd6
Jha'Quan Jackson
They robbed the room for Jha'Quan Jackson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick225
Rnd7
Jordan Magee
Good price on Jordan Magee in slot 225, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
