Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Broncos let Egbuka fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

The Broncos ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

The Egbuka value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Job largely done: interior defensive lineman settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Derrick Harmon
In pick 27 they get a disruptive interior force. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at the 51st overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick59 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
A clean, defensible pick in No. 59 with a little surplus value in TreVeyon Henderson. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick85 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter slipping to Round 3, Pick 21 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick122 Rnd4 Terrance Ferguson
Good price on Terrance Ferguson in the Round 4 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick176 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
Value with a capital V on Seth McLaughlin in slot 176, a genuine coup. It fills a real need, too.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jaydon Blue
Jaydon Blue at No. 191 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick197 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
The board had Dont'e Thornton Jr. higher than the 197th pick, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick208 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Steal is underselling it; Upton Stout at pick 208 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
