Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA+
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Broncos to a D.

Somebody took the Broncos to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it.

Spending an early pick on S-EDGE with offensive lineman open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. They will regret leaving offensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. The Gentry reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and offensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
No drama and no debate, Keon Coleman went about where he belonged in pick No. 23. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick25 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a weapon on the perimeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
They jumped the gun on J.J. McCarthy, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick113 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at No. 113 is a conviction pick that outran the value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick121 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
A straight-up fair deal on Kris Abrams-Draine at pick 121, value and slot in agreement. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jalyx Hunt
Of all the spots to shop, they chose S-EDGE. Jalyx Hunt in slot 125 leaves offensive lineman for later.
Pick127 Rnd4 Daijun Edwards
They paid sticker price for Daijun Edwards in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick149 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
No edge and no loss on Theo Johnson in the 149th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick233 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
They left a pile of value on the table to take Eric Gentry this early at No. 233. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick240 Rnd7 Zion Logue
They liked Zion Logue enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 240. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
