Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Broncos left with their quarterback, and a B to match.

The search is over. The Broncos handed the keys to Bo Nix, and the whole operation now runs on his development. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

However the rest shakes out, Barrett at that price is a win they earned. The Nix reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In No. 19 they get a long-term answer under center, reach and all.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
The board had Jeremiah Trotter Jr. higher than the Round 3 slot, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick122 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
They went early on Ben Sinnott in the 122nd overall pick, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick144 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Justin Eboigbe. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick146 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
No edge and no loss on Tykee Smith in the 146th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick237 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at Round 7, Pick 17 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
