Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Broncos: B-.

The Broncos bet big and early on Jimmy Horn Jr., 100 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

Landing Skattebo that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In pick No. 20 they get protection for the quarterback, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick51 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland in the 51st overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick85 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
You do not let a running back like Kaleb Johnson reach pick 85 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick120 Rnd4 Elic Ayomanor
The board fumbled Elic Ayomanor all the way to No. 120, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick189 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at the Round 6 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick195 Rnd6 Jimmy Horn Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jimmy Horn Jr. in the 195th pick, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
Pick205 Rnd6 Shilo Sanders
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Shilo Sanders well ahead of where he belonged. It adds depth where they could use a little.
