Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA- FutureC
A solid, sensible weekend for the Broncos: B.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Broncos did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to linebacker, which was the need that mattered most.

The Johnson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The Henderson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In slot 12 they get a disruptor off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
They paid sticker price for J.J. McCarthy in pick No. 47, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick100 Rnd3 Cam Hart
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cam Hart in Round 3, Pick 37. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick140 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
By-the-book stuff, Roger Rosengarten at pick 140 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick148 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
A straight-up fair deal on Justin Eboigbe at the 148th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick204 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
They let Cornelius Johnson come to them and pounced at No. 204. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick235 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson at the Round 7 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The roster fit checks out.
