Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Broncos let Liufau fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The Broncos did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Marist Liufau fell into Round 4, Pick 14. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. Reaching for Thomas left real value on the table behind him.

Linebacker is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In No. 12 they get a weapon on the perimeter, outstanding value to boot.
Pick76 Rnd3 Spencer Rattler
A premium they did not need to pay, Spencer Rattler a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick114 Rnd4 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau at the 114th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick122 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A tidy bit of business in Round 4, Pick 22, where Khyree Jackson graded well above the range. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick146 Rnd5 Javon Foster
Javon Foster in the 146th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jalen Green
Jalen Green at pick No. 230 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick237 Rnd7 Xavier Thomas
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Xavier Thomas well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
