Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureB-
The Broncos drew a line under the quarterback search with Maye: B-.

Start where it matters. The Broncos took Drake Maye to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

Johnson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up.

The Hall reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In the 10th pick they get a passer to set the clock by. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick121 Rnd4 Javon Foster
They took Javon Foster at par in the 121st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick136 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Good price on Ben Sinnott in pick 136, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt in pick No. 145 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson slipping to slot 147 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick203 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cornelius Johnson at No. 203 is the proof. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick207 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They jumped the gun on Gabe Hall, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
