Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Broncos turned the phones into found money: B+.

Nobody else had Fabien Lovett anywhere near pick No. 237. The Broncos did, by 97 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

On value alone, Mims makes the weekend a net positive. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target, outstanding value to boot.
Pick36 Rnd2 Bo Nix
Bo Nix is a better player than Round 2, Pick 4 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick76 Rnd3 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims in the 76th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick114 Rnd4 Javon Bullard
Circle this one: Javon Bullard at pick 114 is a fall that decides a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick122 Rnd4 DJ James
DJ James in No. 122 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick146 Rnd5 Cedric Gray
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cedric Gray at slot 146 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick181 Rnd6 Trey Knox
They took Trey Knox at par in pick No. 181, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick230 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
A tidy bit of business in the 230th pick, where Sheridan Jones graded well above the range. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick237 Rnd7 Fabien Lovett
They talked themselves into Fabien Lovett at pick 237, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
