Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA-
The Broncos let Tampa fall and pounced. Final grade: D.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Broncos did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. A D that will need time and luck to look better.

With interior defensive lineman and tight end unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. Pratt has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

The Tampa steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, interior defensive lineman very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick 32 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick64 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
The board had Edgerrin Cooper higher than slot 64, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa at Round 3, Pick 12 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick81 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at No. 81 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick102 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Khyree Jackson adds a cornerback and leaves interior defensive lineman and tight end untouched.
Pick118 Rnd4 Javon Solomon
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went OLB-EDGE with Javon Solomon while clear needs at interior defensive lineman and tight end sat open.
Pick123 Rnd4 Michael Pratt
They paid a round early for Michael Pratt in pick 123, more than the board wanted. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
A reach for Luke McCaffrey in No. 136; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick145 Rnd5 Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas at Round 5, Pick 9 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick147 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at the 147th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick203 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Nothing to complain about; Steele Chambers went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick241 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at slot 241 is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
