Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall F
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureD
Quarterback settled, McCarthy in the fold, and a F for the Broncos.

Nobody had Devin Leary this high, and it is not close. The Broncos reached 37 spots to get him at Round 7, Pick 34.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. J.J. McCarthy gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. That Knight pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

There is no spinning it; the board won this weekend going away.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In pick No. 18 they get their quarterback of the future, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick51 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tyler Nubin in Round 2, Pick 19. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick59 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in slot 59 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick102 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
A reach on Sataoa Laumea in the 102nd pick; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara in the Round 4 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick125 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ben Sinnott. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jacob Cowing
They paid a round early for Jacob Cowing in the 132nd overall pick, more than the board wanted. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick146 Rnd5 Cody Schrader
The board had cheaper options than Cody Schrader at slot 146, and it noticed. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick196 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini in pick 196 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
They talked themselves into Garret Greenfield at pick No. 197, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick237 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight at No. 237 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick254 Rnd7 Devin Leary
Devin Leary in the 254th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
