Draft Grade — Colts
Overall F
ValueF NeedB TradesF FutureC+
The Colts reached for Badger and never recovered. Grade: F.

The Colts treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 45 on Elijhah Badger a full 249 spots early.

The Barron steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Bottom line, it will take a lot of luck to make this look better later.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 JT Tuimoloau
In the 14th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, a steep price for the projection.
Pick45 Rnd2 Elijhah Badger
They left a pile of value on the table to take Elijhah Badger this early at slot 45. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick80 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
They will replay Harold Fannin Jr. at Round 3, Pick 16 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick98 Rnd3 Brandon Adams
Brandon Adams in No. 98 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kyle Monangai
Value said wait; Kyle Monangai in pick 126 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick151 Rnd5 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in the 151st pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jahdae Barron
They barely believed it either: Jahdae Barron still on the board at pick 189. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick232 Rnd7 Jackson Woodard
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jackson Woodard. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
