Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Penix Jr. is the plan now, and the Broncos grade out a B-.

Start where it matters. The Broncos took Michael Penix Jr. to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The McKinstry pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. The Crumedy pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
They paid sticker price for Michael Penix Jr. in slot 12, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick76 Rnd3 Kool-Aid McKinstry
The board fumbled Kool-Aid McKinstry all the way to Round 3, Pick 12, and they scooped it up. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick121 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
Circle this one: Dominick Puni at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick136 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Nice patience on Johnny Wilson, who had no business lasting to the 136th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick145 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
No drama and no debate, Dallin Holker went about where he belonged in pick 145. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick147 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in the 147th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick203 Rnd6 Keith Randolph Jr.
They liked Keith Randolph Jr. enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 203. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jaden Crumedy
A premium they did not need to pay, Jaden Crumedy a notch or two before his time. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
