Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Broncos a B+.

The Broncos bet big and early on Adam Randall, 37 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The Stowers pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick73 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Value with a capital V on Eli Stowers in pick 73, a genuine coup. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick108 Rnd4 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Darrell Jackson Jr. in the 108th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
A tidy bit of business in slot 121, where Jalon Kilgore graded well above the range. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick135 Rnd4 Oscar Delp
A straight-up fair deal on Oscar Delp at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick170 Rnd5 Travis Burke
No drama and no debate, Travis Burke went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 30. The roster fit checks out.
Pick190 Rnd6 Bryce Boettcher
Bryce Boettcher at the 190th pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick246 Rnd7 Adam Randall
They reached a country mile for Adam Randall at Round 7, Pick 30, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick256 Rnd7 Diego Pavia
Diego Pavia at slot 256 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick257 Rnd7 Logan Taylor
A reach on Logan Taylor in the 257th overall pick; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
