Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Broncos cashed the board's mistake on Harvey: B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. DJ Harvey tumbling to the Broncos in No. 255 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
In the 30th pick they get a No. 1 receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick62 Rnd2 Christen Miller
Christen Miller in pick 62 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94 Rnd3 Sam Roush
Sam Roush at the Round 3 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick108 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
Treydan Stukes is a better player than No. 108 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jaishawn Barham
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jaishawn Barham at the 130th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick168 Rnd5 Aaron Anderson
Good price on Aaron Anderson in Round 5, Pick 30, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick246 Rnd7 DJ Harvey
Taking DJ Harvey in slot 246 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick251 Rnd7 DJ Harvey
Steal is underselling it; DJ Harvey at pick No. 251 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick255 Rnd7 DJ Harvey
DJ Harvey at pick No. 255 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
