Draft Grade — Colts
Overall F
ValueD+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Nussmeier in the fold, and a F for the Colts.

The Colts looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Karson Sharar at the 214th pick regardless, 117 picks early. A weekend to file away and forget, and an F to match.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. Garrett Nussmeier is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

On value alone, Trost makes the weekend a net positive.

In the end, a class that has to defy its grades just to matter.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Garrett Nussmeier
In pick No. 29 they get the arm they will build around, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Malachi Lawrence
Malachi Lawrence at Round 2, Pick 15 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick78 Rnd3 Christen Miller
Christen Miller at No. 78 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick109 Rnd4 De'Zhaun Stribling
By-the-book stuff, De'Zhaun Stribling at the 109th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick113 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at pick 113 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jaeden Roberts
No edge and no loss on Jaeden Roberts in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick168 Rnd5 Matt Gulbin
Matt Gulbin at pick 168 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick207 Rnd6 Keagen Trost
Keagen Trost in the Round 6 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jeff Caldwell
You do not let a wide receiver like Jeff Caldwell reach the 210th overall pick and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick214 Rnd6 Karson Sharar
They talked themselves into Karson Sharar at No. 214, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
