Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureC
Quarterback settled, McCarthy in the fold, and a D for the Broncos.

The Broncos lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. Put together, it is a D.

Whatever J.J. McCarthy becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The Hartman pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The Pearsall pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In slot 14 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick32 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In Round 1, Pick 32 they get a franchise quarterback, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick114 Rnd4 Luke Lachey
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 114, where Luke Lachey graded well above the range. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick129 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer in pick 129 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick151 Rnd5 Mike Sainristil
By-the-book stuff, Mike Sainristil at the 151st pick squarely in line with his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick235 Rnd7 Ricky Pearsall
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Ricky Pearsall in the Round 7 slot, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick244 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman at No. 244 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
