Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Broncos lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Amari Gainer, 69 picks early at pick 233. Hard to defend, and the D- reflects that.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On value alone, Puni makes the weekend a net positive.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In the 12th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
By-the-book stuff, Xavier Legette at Round 2, Pick 2 squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick75 Rnd3 Spencer Rattler
Spencer Rattler at slot 75 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick76 Rnd3 Josh Newton
The board had Josh Newton higher than No. 76, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick121 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
They robbed the room for Dominick Puni here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122 Rnd4 Drake Nugent
They left a pile of value on the table to take Drake Nugent this early at the 122nd pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick139 Rnd5 Justin Rogers
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Justin Rogers well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick171 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
They let LaDarius Henderson come to them and pounced at the 171st pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick182 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A conviction pick on Christian Jones at slot 182 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
Pick187 Rnd6 Trey Knox
A clean, defensible pick in the 187th overall pick with a little surplus value in Trey Knox. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick209 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
A big swing on Trevor Keegan at No. 209, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
Pick224 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones in Round 7, Pick 4 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick233 Rnd7 Amari Gainer
Amari Gainer at pick 233 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick240 Rnd7 Maurice Smith
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Maurice Smith. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
