Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
Grand theft in pick No. 108: the Broncos steal Bryant and grade out a A-.

The Broncos ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Bryant falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Emery Jones and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Emery Jones
In pick 23 they get a cornerstone up front, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Tre Harris
Tre Harris slipping to the Round 2 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76 Rnd3 Shilo Sanders
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Shilo Sanders. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick87 Rnd3 Brant Kuithe
They paid sticker price for Brant Kuithe in the 87th pick, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick108 Rnd4 Jacobee Bryant
You do not let a cornerback like Jacobee Bryant reach Round 4, Pick 12 and blink. They did not. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick151 Rnd5 Reuben Fatheree II
Reuben Fatheree II in No. 151 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick182 Rnd6 Khordae Sydnor
Khordae Sydnor at the 182nd overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
