Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Broncos robbed the room for Roush. Final grade: B.

The Broncos spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Sam Roush, the No. 88 name on the board, in the 108th pick.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Allen has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They left with linebacker solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In slot 30 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
A quiet steal in the Round 2 slot: Emmanuel McNeil-Warren for less than the market said. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick94 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Domonique Orange reach the 94th overall pick and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick108 Rnd4 Sam Roush
Taking Sam Roush in pick No. 108 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 Kaytron Allen
Kaytron Allen in Round 4, Pick 30 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A need, and now a little less of one.
