Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB NeedC TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Broncos: B-.

The Justice Haynes selection is the head-turner. The Broncos reached 49 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Getting Stone where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Spending an early pick on linebacker with edge rusher and quarterback open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa
A surprising call. With edge rusher and quarterback still to address, they spent the 24th pick on Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa, a linebacker they were not short of.
Pick55 Rnd2 David Stone
Somehow David Stone was still sitting there in slot 55, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick86 Rnd3 Jaylen McClain
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Jaylen McClain adds a safety and leaves edge rusher and quarterback untouched.
Pick123 Rnd4 Evan Tengesdahl
Evan Tengesdahl in Round 4, Pick 21 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick136 Rnd4 Justice Haynes
This one needs a full-page explanation: Justice Haynes in No. 136, miles early. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick157 Rnd5 Whit Weeks
Whit Weeks at the 157th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick205 Rnd6 DeAndre Moore Jr.
A conviction pick on DeAndre Moore Jr. at pick 205 that the board grades a round light. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick232 Rnd7 Boo Carter
By-the-book stuff, Boo Carter at No. 232 squarely in line with his ranking. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick242 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 242, where Brett Norfleet graded well above the range. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
