Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Broncos finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Bo Nix is the Broncos' quarterback, full stop.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Torrence. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term answer under center. A real need, handled.
Pick56 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Nice patience on Chris Braswell, who had no business lasting to No. 56. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Value with a capital V on Kiran Amegadjie in pick 76, a genuine coup. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick94 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk at Round 3, Pick 31 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick100 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
They robbed the room for Mike Sainristil here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick121 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
A quiet steal in the 121st pick: Cole Bishop for less than the market said. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick136 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in slot 136 lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick145 Rnd5 Marcus Harris
They paid sticker price for Marcus Harris in the 145th overall pick, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick147 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker in the Round 5 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick152 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan is a better player than pick No. 152 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick203 Rnd6 Khristian Boyd
You do not let an edge rusher like Khristian Boyd reach Round 6, Pick 28 and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick207 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
A tidy bit of business in slot 207, where Steele Chambers graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick222 Rnd7 Ro Torrence
Taking Ro Torrence in the 222nd pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
