Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Bryant should have been long gone. The Broncos pounced, and earned a B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Cobee Bryant at the 197th overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want. Every board in the league had Skattebo lower, and that gap is the story. Interior defensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick 20 they get an anchor for the defensive front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick51 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at pick No. 51 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick85 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A conviction pick on Cam Skattebo at the Round 3 slot that the board grades a round light. The roster fit checks out.
Pick122 Rnd4 Terrance Ferguson
A clean, defensible pick in slot 122 with a little surplus value in Terrance Ferguson. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick191 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Nice patience on Dont'e Thornton Jr., who had no business lasting to the 191st pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant at No. 197 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick208 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
They jumped the gun on Cam Jackson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
