Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Broncos checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The Broncos looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jacob Rodriguez at the 62nd overall pick regardless, 32 picks early.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Landing King that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In the Round 1 slot they get a red-zone target to build around, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jacob Rodriguez
A real head-scratcher, Jacob Rodriguez in Round 2, Pick 30 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick94 Rnd3 Emmett Johnson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Emmett Johnson at slot 94 is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick108 Rnd4 Tim Keenan III
Tim Keenan III at pick 108 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 CJ Daniels
They paid sticker price for CJ Daniels in No. 130, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick168 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa at the 168th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick246 Rnd7 Roman Hemby
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Roman Hemby. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick251 Rnd7 Colbie Young
No edge and no loss on Colbie Young in the 251st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick255 Rnd7 Haynes King
A tidy bit of business in the 255th overall pick, where Haynes King graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
