The Broncos spent real capital to be 89 picks early on Zachariah Branch, and the board is going to hold them to it. It grades a D, and the process earned it.

A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and linebacker is still a hole.
