Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall C+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesD- FutureC+
Larceny in slot 210 lands the Broncos a C+, Harvey and all.

You build a draft on nights like this. RJ Harvey had no business being available in the 210th pick, and the Broncos did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Hit on Nick Emmanwori and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a two-high chess piece. Need was not the driver here.
Pick37 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Somehow Tyler Warren was still sitting there in the 37th overall pick, and they pounced on premier tight end value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick85 Rnd3 Dylan Sampson
They robbed the room for Dylan Sampson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick121 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
They barely believed it either: Tez Johnson still on the board at No. 121. The roster fit checks out.
Pick176 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 176th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick178 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
They took JJ Pegues at par in pick No. 178, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser in pick 193 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick199 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
Value with a capital V on KeAndre Lambert-Smith in slot 199, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick210 Rnd6 RJ Harvey
The board fumbled RJ Harvey all the way to pick 210, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
