Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Broncos won the night they stopped Williams from sliding. Grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Savion Williams got past him. The Broncos do not have to explain a thing at the 121st overall pick. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want. Job largely done: interior defensive lineman settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 20th pick they get a mismatch in the passing game. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton in No. 51 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick85 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Taking Deone Walker in the 85th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick121 Rnd4 Savion Williams
They robbed the room for Savion Williams here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at pick 193 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick199 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
You do not let a wide receiver like Dont'e Thornton Jr. reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
