Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
McGlothern should have been long gone. The Broncos pounced, and earned a B+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dwight McGlothern got past him. The Broncos do not have to explain a thing at the 206th overall pick.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They are betting McCaffrey proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In No. 14 they get a double-digit-sack hope. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Nice patience on Keon Coleman, who had no business lasting to Round 2, Pick 13. The roster fit checks out.
Pick120 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
Tyler Davis in the 120th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick135 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
By-the-book stuff, Theo Johnson at pick 135 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick146 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at pick No. 146 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick206 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in the Round 6 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
