Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesD FutureA
A passer of the future in Nix, and a B-, for the Broncos.

The Broncos spent the pick that matters most on Bo Nix, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

The Allen pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In the 29th overall pick they get their quarterback of the future. A real need, handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in Round 3, Pick 12 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick92 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
By-the-book stuff, Marshawn Kneeland at the 92nd pick squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick120 Rnd4 Andru Phillips
A straight-up fair deal on Andru Phillips at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick135 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Circle this one: Braelon Allen at No. 135 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick144 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Johnny Wilson at pick 144 is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick146 Rnd5 Isaiah Adams
Steal is underselling it; Isaiah Adams at pick No. 146 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick163 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
A reasonable price with a little left over, Dallin Holker in slot 163. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick202 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
A tidy little value on Curtis Jacobs in the Round 6 slot, a step better than break-even. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206 Rnd6 Elijah Jones
Nice patience on Elijah Jones, who had no business lasting to the 206th overall pick. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
