Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall C+
ValueD- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Broncos: C+.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Broncos shredded theirs for Deone Walker. He came off 66 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Getting Hairston where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Deone Walker
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a run-stuffing presence up front, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick51 Rnd2 Bradyn Swinson
Bradyn Swinson in pick 51 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick85 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at the 85th pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick122 Rnd4 Terrance Ferguson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Terrance Ferguson in pick No. 122. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick191 Rnd6 Ja'Corey Brooks
A wild overpay on Ja'Corey Brooks in slot 191, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
A reach on Nazir Stackhouse in the 197th overall pick; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick208 Rnd6 Donovan Edwards
Nothing to complain about; Donovan Edwards went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
