Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA- FutureB
A solid, sensible weekend for the Broncos: B.

For all the boxes ticked, the Broncos skipped the loudest one: interior defensive lineman is exactly as bare as it was. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Reaching for Leary left real value on the table behind him. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy at slot 35 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick76 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
No drama and no debate, Christian Haynes went about where he belonged in pick No. 76. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick90 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
A reasonable price with a little left over, Marist Liufau in pick 90. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick104 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Khyree Jackson. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick113 Rnd4 Nelson Ceaser
Nelson Ceaser at Round 4, Pick 13 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick121 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
Nothing to complain about; Ainias Smith went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick133 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer at the 133rd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
By-the-book stuff, Jaylen Wright at the 149th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick156 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson slid further than he should have, and slot 156 is lovely value for the cornerback. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick157 Rnd5 Cedric Johnson
Cedric Johnson in the 157th pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick169 Rnd5 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in Round 5, Pick 33 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick233 Rnd7 Mark Perry
A straight-up fair deal on Mark Perry at the Round 7 slot, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick240 Rnd7 Devin Leary
Devin Leary at pick 240 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jeremy James
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jeremy James in No. 251. A need, and now a little less of one.
