Draft Grade — Broncos

FutureB
The phones sank the Broncos this weekend: D-. The trade table was where it all came apart. The Broncos shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. Too much went sideways, and the D- is the honest tally.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. The Pratt pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. However the rest shakes out, Braswell at that price is a win they earned.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a weapon on the perimeter. A real need, handled.
Pick43
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
They read the board right and Chris Braswell was the payoff at pick No. 43. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick74
Rnd3
Johnny Wilson
A straight-up fair deal on Johnny Wilson at No. 74, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76
Rnd3
Junior Colson
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Junior Colson. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick79
Rnd3
Michael Pratt
They reached a country mile for Michael Pratt at the 79th overall pick, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick96
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
A reach on Khyree Jackson in the Round 3 slot; the board had better options right there. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick109
Rnd4
Isaiah Adams
A reach for Isaiah Adams in pick 109; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick113
Rnd4
Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in slot 113, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick121
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Beaux Limmer. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick149
Rnd5
Braelon Allen
By-the-book stuff, Braelon Allen at pick No. 149 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick155
Rnd5
Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson at pick 155 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick189
Rnd6
Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor at Round 6, Pick 14 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick212
Rnd6
Matthew Jones
Value said wait; Matthew Jones in the 212th pick says they were not listening. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick233
Rnd7
Walter Rouse
They went early on Walter Rouse in the 233rd overall pick, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick240
Rnd7
Ja'Had Carter
No drama and no debate, Ja'Had Carter went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
