Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Broncos did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

When a board-topper like Joe Royer slides to the 95th pick, you do not overthink it, and the Broncos did not.

The cost of the Graves reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 KC Concepcion
In slot 31 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick63 Rnd2 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Darrell Jackson Jr. at pick 63 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick95 Rnd3 Joe Royer
Joe Royer at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jaishawn Barham
Jaishawn Barham in pick No. 109 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick131 Rnd4 Aaron Graves
They left a pile of value on the table to take Aaron Graves this early at the 131st overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick170 Rnd5 Aaron Anderson
They let Aaron Anderson come to them and pounced at slot 170. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick247 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Brett Norfleet at No. 247. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick252 Rnd7 Riley Mahlman
Riley Mahlman at Round 7, Pick 36 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick256 Rnd7 Ethan O'Connor
No drama and no debate, Ethan O'Connor went about where he belonged in pick 256. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
