Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A passer of the future in Penix Jr., and a B-, for the Broncos.

Start where it matters. The Broncos took Michael Penix Jr. to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up. The Jackson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. On value alone, Limmer makes the weekend a net positive.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
In the 12th overall pick they get a long-term answer under center. A real need, handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
They jumped the gun on Khyree Jackson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick121 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
They paid sticker price for Theo Johnson in Round 4, Pick 21, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick136 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer at the 136th pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick145 Rnd5 Brennan Jackson
A reach on Brennan Jackson in pick No. 145; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
They took Luke McCaffrey at par in No. 147, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
