Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Loveland should have been long gone. The Broncos pounced, and earned a B.

The Broncos spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Colston Loveland, the No. 62 name on the board, in the 120th pick. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

Every board in the league had Lacy lower, and that gap is the story. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In the 19th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 T.J. Sanders
Nice patience on T.J. Sanders, who had no business lasting to pick 54. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick83 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
A conviction pick on Alfred Collins at No. 83 that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick120 Rnd4 Colston Loveland
A tight end of that caliber at the Round 4 slot is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick195 Rnd6 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at pick No. 195 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick196 Rnd6 Kyren Lacy
They reached into another round for Kyren Lacy, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick206 Rnd6 J.C. Davis
They reached a country mile for J.C. Davis at Round 6, Pick 31, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
