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

Nobody else had Davison Igbinosun anywhere near pick No. 124. The Broncos did, by 98 spots, and that gap is the whole story. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Sanders at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 23rd overall pick they get a bell-cow for the offense, outstanding value to boot.
Pick54 Rnd2 T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders in slot 54 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jack Bech
Jack Bech at pick 88 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick124 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun in the 124th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick191 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
They talked themselves into Thor Griffith at pick No. 191, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick199 Rnd6 Ja'Corey Brooks
A reach for Ja'Corey Brooks in No. 199; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jalen Travis
Jalen Travis at slot 205 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
