Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Broncos kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Broncos took Luke McCaffrey a full 28 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In slot 12 they get a wrecking ball inside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Spencer Rattler
Spencer Rattler at the 76th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick113 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
They left a pile of value on the table to take Luke McCaffrey this early at No. 113. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick121 Rnd4 James Williams
The board had cheaper options than James Williams at Round 4, Pick 21, and it noticed. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick149 Rnd5 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
Zion Tupuola-Fetui in the 149th overall 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.
Pick233 Rnd7 Carson Steele
Carson Steele at pick 233 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick240 Rnd7 Aaron Frost
They liked Aaron Frost enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 7, Pick 20. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
