Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Broncos, and a B- to prove it.

The Broncos put a flag in the ground for Jackson Hawes, 42 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Smith.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick 20 they get a seam-stretching tight end at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick51 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Demetrius Knight Jr. at the 51st pick squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick85 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at pick No. 85 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122 Rnd4 Brashard Smith
They read the board right and Brashard Smith was the payoff at the Round 4 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
A conviction pick on Jordan Hancock at No. 191 that the board grades a round light. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick197 Rnd6 Alex Mastromanno
Alex Mastromanno in Round 6, Pick 21 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes in the 208th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
