Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall F
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Broncos drew a line under the quarterback search with McCarthy: F.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Broncos took Taulia Tagovailoa a full 73 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. It bottoms out at a F.

So much rides on J.J. McCarthy that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.

They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it. The Suamataia pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

In the end, a class that has to defy its grades just to matter.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In No. 12 they get the face of the franchise, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick26 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In pick 26 they get a sticky cover corner. More want than need.
Pick45 Rnd2 Roman Wilson
They paid sticker price for Roman Wilson in pick No. 45, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick76 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
They will replay Kingsley Suamataia at the Round 3 slot for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick122 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
Value said wait; Tykee Smith in slot 122 says they were not listening. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick144 Rnd5 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at the 144th pick is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick146 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
A conviction pick on Dallin Holker at slot 146 that the board grades a round light. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick203 Rnd6 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa at the 203rd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick237 Rnd7 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali slid further than he should have, and Round 7, Pick 17 is lovely value for the running back. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
