TB46 DRAFTING FOR THEBroncos

Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall

TradesA-
FutureB
Nix is the plan now, and the Broncos grade out a B. Start where it matters. The Broncos took Bo Nix to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.
Getting McCoy where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. The Bell reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Bo Nix
In pick 25 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick49
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
By-the-book stuff, Kris Jenkins at slot 49 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick57
Rnd2
Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in No. 57 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick76
Rnd3
Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke in the Round 3 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick113
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
Circle this one: Brenden Rice at pick No. 113 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick122
Rnd4
Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell in the 122nd overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick149
Rnd5
Keith Randolph Jr.
They liked Keith Randolph Jr. enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 5, Pick 13. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick196
Rnd6
Ainias Smith
They will replay Ainias Smith at the 196th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick203
Rnd6
Omar Speights
Omar Speights in pick No. 203 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick233
Rnd7
Bru McCoy
A wide receiver of that caliber at slot 233 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick241
Rnd7
Sheridan Jones
Steal is underselling it; Sheridan Jones at Round 7, Pick 21 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
