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

The Broncos lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Landing Rosengarten that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In the 31st overall pick they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value.
Pick36 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in No. 36 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick76 Rnd3 Cade Stover
Cade Stover at pick No. 76 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick121 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
No drama and no debate, Theo Johnson went about where he belonged in the 121st pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
No edge and no loss on Jarrian Jones in Round 4, Pick 34; it is a wash and a sensible one. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick136 Rnd4 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at pick 136 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick145 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten is a better player than slot 145 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick147 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Luke McCaffrey. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick150 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
A straight-up fair deal on Isaiah Davis at the Round 5 slot, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
