Draft Grade — Broncos

The Broncos did the meat-and-potatoes work well: 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. No fireworks, but a solid B-.
They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The skill positions did well by the weekend.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Luther Burden III
In the Round 1 slot they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51
Rnd2
Donovan Ezeiruaku
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Donovan Ezeiruaku. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
