Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A passer of the future in Daniels, and a D, for the Broncos.

Somebody took the Broncos to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it.

They have staked the next five years on Jayden Daniels, which is the only story that really matters here. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. They banked enough surplus on Newton to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Jenkins has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
Jayden Daniels at slot 12 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the quarterback. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick27 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In No. 27 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins in pick No. 35 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick76 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in pick 76 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick114 Rnd4 Josh Newton
They robbed the room for Josh Newton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick122 Rnd4 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight in the Round 4 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick146 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
No drama and no debate, Theo Johnson went about where he belonged in the 146th overall pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jalen Green
Fair-plus on Jalen Green, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
Nothing to complain about; Jase McClellan went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
