Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueC NeedB TradesB FutureA-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Broncos.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Kaidon Salter; the Broncos did not wait, grabbing him 175 spots ahead at pick No. 192. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Spending an early pick on defensive back with linebacker open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. Landing Bailey that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Isaiah Bond
In slot 31 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value.
Pick35 Rnd2 Patrick Payton
No edge and no loss on Patrick Payton in Round 2, Pick 3; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick63 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker slid further than he should have, and the Round 2 slot is lovely value for the offensive lineman. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick67 Rnd3 Samuel Brown
Samuel Brown at the 67th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick83 Rnd3 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in pick 83 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick93 Rnd3 Keon Sabb
A want over a need in No. 93: Keon Sabb adds a defensive back while linebacker keeps waiting.
Pick99 Rnd4 Shemar Stewart
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Shemar Stewart. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick115 Rnd4 Antonio Williams
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Antonio Williams. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick125 Rnd4 David Bailey
David Bailey slipping to No. 125 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick147 Rnd5 Trey Moore
This one needs a full-page explanation: Trey Moore in Round 5, Pick 19, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick157 Rnd5 Zach Rice
Zach Rice at slot 157 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick163 Rnd6 Maliq Carr
Maliq Carr at the 163rd pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick173 Rnd6 Will Sheppard
The board had cheaper options than Will Sheppard at the 173rd overall pick, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
Pick179 Rnd6 Cashius Howell
A premium they did not need to pay, Cashius Howell a notch or two before his time. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick189 Rnd6 Zane Durant
They reached into another round for Zane Durant, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick192 Rnd6 Kaidon Salter
Value said wait; Kaidon Salter in slot 192 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick211 Rnd7 Caullin Lacy
A wild overpay on Caullin Lacy in the 211th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick218 Rnd7 Corey Kiner
They reached a country mile for Corey Kiner at No. 218, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick221 Rnd7 Azareye'h Thomas
They talked themselves into Azareye'h Thomas at the Round 7 slot, and the board did not agree. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
