Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureC+
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Broncos to a D-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Broncos started one anyway for Erick All, 75 picks ahead of schedule.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

On value alone, Magee makes the weekend a net positive.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, running back very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide. A real need, handled.
Pick60 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders at No. 60 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick76 Rnd3 Spencer Rattler
Spencer Rattler in the 76th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick85 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson at slot 85 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick114 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
No edge and no loss on Ainias Smith in the 114th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick122 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop in Round 4, Pick 22 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick146 Rnd5 Erick All
Erick All at the Round 5 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick197 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at pick No. 197 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick202 Rnd6 Braiden McGregor
A premium they did not need to pay, Braiden McGregor a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee at slot 230 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick237 Rnd7 Donell Harris Jr.
They reached into another round for Donell Harris Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
