Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Broncos kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Broncos started one anyway for Cam Jackson, 27 picks ahead of schedule.

They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the Round 1 slot they get a load in the middle. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
A straight-up fair deal on TreVeyon Henderson at the 51st pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick85 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A reach for Cam Skattebo in No. 85; a little patience would have been rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
By-the-book stuff, O'Donnell Fortune at pick 122 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick191 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. slipping to the 191st overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick197 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
A big swing on Cam Jackson at slot 197, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at pick No. 208 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
