Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
The Broncos found their guy under center in Nix: B-.

The search is over. The Broncos handed the keys to Bo Nix, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

Getting Hart where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They will need Barner to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In slot 32 they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick54 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
They did well to land Edgerrin Cooper in pick No. 54, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick73 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
A tidy little value on Devontez Walker in Round 3, Pick 9, a step better than break-even. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick87 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
By-the-book stuff, Bucky Irving at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick121 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at the 121st pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick136 Rnd4 Brennan Jackson
They talked themselves into Brennan Jackson at No. 136, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick145 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
They paid sticker price for Luke McCaffrey in the 145th overall pick, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick147 Rnd5 AJ Barner
AJ Barner in pick 147 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick186 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Circle this one: Kamal Hadden at the 186th pick is a fall that decides a draft. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick203 Rnd6 Trente Jones
Trente Jones at the Round 6 slot is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
