Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesC FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Broncos for Neal: B.

The board owed the Broncos one, and it paid up: Devin Neal, the No. 82 name on the board, sitting there at pick 122 like a gift left on the doorstep. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

A fair-value weekend of trading, no edge to be found.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
In No. 26 they get a moveable chess piece at tight end. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at the Round 2 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick85 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Elic Ayomanor at slot 85. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122 Rnd4 Devin Neal
They barely believed it either: Devin Neal still on the board at the 122nd overall pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom in the 127th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick191 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in pick No. 191 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick197 Rnd6 CJ West
CJ West slid further than he should have, and Round 6, Pick 21 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Nothing to complain about; Jay Higgins went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
