Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall A
ValueA+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
Grand theft in pick 247: the Broncos steal Tyson and grade out a A.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Jordyn Tyson got past him. The Broncos do not have to explain a thing at pick No. 247. The board rewarded a patient, disciplined weekend with a A.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.

Pick Analysis
Pick64 Rnd2 David Bailey
You do not let an edge rusher like David Bailey reach the 64th pick and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick78 Rnd3 Spencer Fano
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Spencer Fano in pick No. 78, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick95 Rnd3 Kayden McDonald
Kayden McDonald in No. 95 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick108 Rnd4 Olaivavega Ioane
Olaivavega Ioane at the 108th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Darrell Jackson Jr.
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at slot 169 is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick213 Rnd6 Sonny Styles
Circle this one: Sonny Styles at Round 6, Pick 32 is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick216 Rnd6 Mansoor Delane
They will replay Mansoor Delane at the Round 6 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jordyn Tyson
Somehow Jordyn Tyson was still sitting there in pick 247, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick256 Rnd7 Whit Weeks
Whit Weeks in pick No. 256 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
