Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall C-
ValueF NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Broncos get a C-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Jahiem White, 377 picks early at the Round 4 slot. It nets out a thoroughly average C-.

The Traore pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with linebacker the one that mattered most.

So much rides on Tony Rojas that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Tony Rojas
In No. 29 they get the heartbeat of the defense, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Adam Trick
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Adam Trick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick93 Rnd3 Francis Brewu
Francis Brewu at the 93rd pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick131 Rnd4 Boubacar Traore
Circle this one: Boubacar Traore at pick No. 131 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jahiem White
Value said wait; Jahiem White in the Round 4 slot says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick168 Rnd5 Desmond Umeozulu
Desmond Umeozulu at slot 168 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jelani Thurman
Jelani Thurman at the 208th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick229 Rnd7 Kam Robinson
A wild overpay on Kam Robinson in No. 229, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick250 Rnd7 Xavier Lucas
They reached into another round for Xavier Lucas, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
