Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC FutureB
The Colts checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Colts never addressed wide receiver, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The Sanders pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move. Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In slot 14 they get a red-zone target to build around. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick54 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Demetrius Knight Jr. at No. 54 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick90 Rnd3 Sebastian Castro
Good price on Sebastian Castro in the Round 3 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick117 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
They paid sticker price for Dorian Strong in pick No. 117, and that is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick189 Rnd6 Raheim Sanders
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Raheim Sanders at the 189th pick is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick190 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
No drama and no debate, Jaylen Reed went about where he belonged in the 190th overall pick. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick232 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
No edge and no loss on Jermari Harris in pick 232; it is a wash and a sensible one. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick237 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Carson Vinson in Round 7, Pick 21. The roster fit checks out.
