Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Broncos finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a D.

Somebody took the Broncos to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.

Whatever Bo Nix becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

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
Pick12 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a bendy edge with upside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick19 Rnd1 Bo Nix
They took Bo Nix at par in the 19th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick64 Rnd2 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in No. 64 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick113 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in pick 113, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick122 Rnd4 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon at pick No. 122 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick149 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
The board had cheaper options than LaDarius Henderson at the 149th pick, and it noticed. The roster fit checks out.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
They went early on Jordan Jefferson in slot 162, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick169 Rnd5 AJ Barner
A reach on AJ Barner in pick No. 169; the board had better options right there. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick233 Rnd7 Zion Logue
They jumped the gun on Zion Logue, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick241 Rnd7 Demani Richardson
They did well to land Demani Richardson in No. 241, just ahead of his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
