Draft Grade — Broncos
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Broncos won the night they stopped Schwesinger from sliding. Grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Carson Schwesinger got past him. The Broncos do not have to explain a thing at the 121st overall pick.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. If West pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
In the Round 1 slot they get a red-zone target to build around. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
A straight-up fair deal on TreVeyon Henderson at the 51st pick, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick85 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba is a better player than the 85th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick121 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 4, Pick 20 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick193 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
Value with a capital V on JJ Pegues in pick No. 193, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick199 Rnd6 CJ West
The board had cheaper options than CJ West at No. 199, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick210 Rnd6 Antwane Wells Jr.
You do not let a wide receiver like Antwane Wells Jr. reach pick 210 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
