Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Broncos turned the phones into found money: B+.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Broncos spent Round 5, Pick 15 on Braylan Shelby, a name the board had a full 41 spots lower. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

The Scott steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 Kenyon Sadiq
Kenyon Sadiq in slot 37 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick46 Rnd2 Germie Bernard
They paid sticker price for Germie Bernard in pick 46, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick95 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
A cornerback of that caliber at the 95th pick is the definition of value, full stop. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick126 Rnd4 Blake Miller
Blake Miller in the 126th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick154 Rnd5 Braylan Shelby
A real head-scratcher, Braylan Shelby in the Round 5 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick186 Rnd6 Bud Clark
A straight-up fair deal on Bud Clark at pick No. 186, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick228 Rnd7 J. Michael Sturdivant
Fair-plus on J. Michael Sturdivant, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick247 Rnd7 PJ Williams
Value with a capital V on PJ Williams in the 247th pick, a genuine coup. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Ricardo Hallman
Ricardo Hallman at pick 255 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
