Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB FutureB-
Paul Jr. should have been long gone. The Broncos pounced, and earned a B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Chris Paul Jr. at the 198th overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Broncos indulged a want in Starks while a need in edge rusher and quarterback stayed open.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 20th pick they get a red-zone target to build around at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at the 58th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick85 Rnd3 Malaki Starks
A surprising call. With edge rusher and quarterback still to address, they spent slot 85 on Malaki Starks, a safety they were not short of.
Pick89 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Kaleb Johnson in No. 89, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick121 Rnd4 Demetrius Knight Jr.
They robbed the room for Demetrius Knight Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick198 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
The board fumbled Chris Paul Jr. all the way to the Round 6 slot, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick199 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing JJ Pegues in pick 199. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at pick No. 210 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick227 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. at the 227th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
