Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB FutureC+
The Broncos cashed the board's mistake on Kilgore: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Jalon Kilgore slide, and the Broncos were the ones holding the card at slot 144. Highway robbery.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick63 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
Anthony Hill Jr. at No. 63 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Steal is underselling it; Eli Stowers at pick 75 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick111 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Bryce Lance at slot 111. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jalon Kilgore
You do not let a cornerback like Jalon Kilgore reach the 144th overall pick and blink. They did not. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick246 Rnd7 Eli Heidenreich
By-the-book stuff, Eli Heidenreich at pick No. 246 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick256 Rnd7 Fa'alili Fa'amoe
Fa'alili Fa'amoe in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
