Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
Quarterback settled, McCarthy in the fold, and a B for the Broncos.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. J.J. McCarthy is the Broncos' quarterback, full stop. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Landing Newton that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term answer under center, reach and all.
Pick52 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
No edge and no loss on Braden Fiske in pick No. 52; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher at No. 76 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jonah Elliss
No drama and no debate, Jonah Elliss went about where he belonged in slot 83. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick121 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
A straight-up fair deal on Johnny Wilson at Round 4, Pick 21, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick136 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
They liked Luke McCaffrey enough to skip the value, taking him in the 136th overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick145 Rnd5 Josh Newton
They barely believed it either: Josh Newton still on the board at the 145th pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick147 Rnd5 Brennan Jackson
Brennan Jackson at pick 147 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jared Wiley. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan in pick 207 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
Pick213 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
They paid sticker price for Nathaniel Watson in No. 213, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
