Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall A-
ValueA- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Broncos let Pierce fall into their laps, and walked away with a A-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Hollin Pierce had no business being available in pick No. 193, and the Broncos did the only sane thing and turned in the card. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with linebacker the one that mattered most. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick 20 they get a workhorse for the backfield, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick54 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
No edge and no loss on Harold Fannin Jr. in slot 54; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at the 57th overall pick is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick67 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Value with a capital V on Alfred Collins in Round 3, Pick 3, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick85 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas in the Round 3 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick110 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Smael Mondon Jr. at No. 110, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick121 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
They let Cam Skattebo come to them and pounced at pick No. 121. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick123 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
The board fumbled Tez Johnson all the way to the 123rd pick, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick131 Rnd4 Tory Horton
Tory Horton at No. 131 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick193 Rnd6 Hollin Pierce
They barely believed it either: Hollin Pierce still on the board at the Round 6 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick202 Rnd6 Nick Nash
Circle this one: Nick Nash at the 202nd pick is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick206 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in slot 206 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick210 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
You do not let a cornerback like Cobee Bryant reach pick No. 210 and blink. They did not. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick257 Rnd7 Cam Horsley
They robbed the room for Cam Horsley here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
