Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Broncos a B-.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Broncos walked out of the weekend still thin at interior defensive lineman, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

That is a running back worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Chris Bell
Chris Bell at pick 32 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman is a better player than pick No. 64 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick96 Rnd3 Whit Weeks
Whit Weeks at slot 96 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
