Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nix is the plan now, and the Broncos grade out a B-.

The Broncos spent the pick that matters most on Bo Nix, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

They will need Fairchild to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The Stover pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at linebacker, interior defensive lineman and other spots.

Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In the 12th overall pick they get their quarterback of the future, though they paid up to get him. A real need, handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
They jumped the gun on TreVeyon Henderson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick113 Rnd4 Cade Stover
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went TE-EDGE with Cade Stover while clear needs at linebacker, interior defensive lineman and other spots sat open.
Pick124 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
They went early on Shemar Turner in pick No. 124, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick149 Rnd5 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in No. 149 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick233 Rnd7 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse at slot 233 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick243 Rnd7 Mason Fairchild
Mason Fairchild at the 243rd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
