Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Broncos bled value on every deal, hence the D-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Broncos started one anyway for Luke McCaffrey, 31 picks ahead of schedule.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and interior defensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
A straight-up fair deal on Olumuyiwa Fashanu at pick 12, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick34 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They reached a country mile for Edgerrin Cooper at the 34th pick, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick76 Rnd3 Spencer Rattler
Spencer Rattler at the 76th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Khyree Jackson at No. 104 squarely in line with his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick110 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at the Round 4 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick113 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
A premium they did not need to pay, Darius Robinson a notch or two before his time. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jaheim Bell
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jaheim Bell well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick149 Rnd5 Delmar Glaze
Delmar Glaze at pick 149 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick182 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at the 182nd pick is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Pick227 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
No edge and no loss on Steele Chambers in slot 227; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick233 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
They jumped the gun on Matthew Jones, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick240 Rnd7 Aaron Frost
A conviction pick on Aaron Frost at the Round 7 slot that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
