Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB
The Broncos lost the trade table, and the D tells the story.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Broncos did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. Put together, it is a D.

A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want. They will need McCarthy to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The Coleman value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, linebacker very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
The board had cheaper options than J.J. McCarthy at the Round 2 slot, and it noticed. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick52 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Nice patience on Keon Coleman, who had no business lasting to No. 52. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick114 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Beau Brade at slot 114 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick122 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
No edge and no loss on Kris Abrams-Draine in the 122nd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick146 Rnd5 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at pick 146 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jase McClellan. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick237 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
No drama and no debate, Brevyn Spann-Ford went about where he belonged in pick No. 237. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
