Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureA-
The Broncos found their guy under center in McCarthy: B.

The search is over. The Broncos handed the keys to J.J. McCarthy, and the whole operation now runs on his development. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

Landing Cowing that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

The Carter pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a franchise quarterback, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in pick No. 76 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick91 Rnd3 DeWayne Carter
A premium they did not need to pay, DeWayne Carter a notch or two before his time. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick117 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen slipping to the 117th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The roster fit checks out.
Pick121 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at slot 121 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick136 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
A slide stopped in pick 136, with Johnny Wilson worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jamari Thrash
The board had Jamari Thrash higher than No. 145, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jalen McMillan
A wide receiver of that caliber at the 151st pick is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick153 Rnd5 Jared Wiley
By-the-book stuff, Jared Wiley at Round 5, Pick 17 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing at pick No. 203 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
A quiet steal in slot 207: Jase McClellan for less than the market said. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick212 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall at pick 212 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Taking Steele Chambers in No. 219 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
