Larceny in pick 80 lands the Broncos a B, Collins and all. If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Broncos, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend.
On value alone, Collins makes the weekend a net positive. The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Broncos clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.
They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a seam-stretching tight end, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Nick Emmanwori at No. 34 is the proof. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick80
Rnd3
Alfred Collins
The board fumbled Alfred Collins all the way to slot 80, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick85
Rnd3
Darien Porter
The board had Darien Porter higher than pick No. 85, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick116
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at the 116th overall pick is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick134
Rnd4
Anthony Belton
They barely believed it either: Anthony Belton still on the board at Round 4, Pick 33. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick193
Rnd6
Quincy Riley
Steal is underselling it; Quincy Riley at No. 193 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
