Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Broncos a B-.

The Broncos treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick 151 on Curtis Jacobs a full 53 spots early. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. The roster is better shaped than it was, with linebacker chief among the fixes. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Bralen Trice
In pick 14 they get a disruptor off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick78 Rnd3 Spencer Rattler
A real head-scratcher, Spencer Rattler in No. 78 is miles ahead of his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick114 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
They paid sticker price for Blake Fisher in the 114th pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick129 Rnd4 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett in the 129th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick151 Rnd5 Curtis Jacobs
This one needs a full-page explanation: Curtis Jacobs in Round 5, Pick 15, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick235 Rnd7 Kenny Logan Jr.
A big swing on Kenny Logan Jr. at pick No. 235, well ahead of any board in the building. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick244 Rnd7 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at slot 244 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
