FutureA+
The Colts did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Colts spent slot 252 on Kain Medrano, a name most had 83 spots down the list.
The Loveland pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The Porter pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher still on the board.
Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick47
Rnd2
Colston Loveland
The board fumbled Colston Loveland all the way to Round 2, Pick 15, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick53
Rnd2
Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at pick 53 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick54
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
A straight-up fair deal on Alfred Collins at the 54th pick, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick63
Rnd2
Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas in the Round 2 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick64
Rnd2
Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. in slot 64 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick65
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
Nice patience on TreVeyon Henderson, who had no business lasting to pick No. 65. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick76
Rnd3
Darien Porter
A want over a need in pick 76: Darien Porter adds a cornerback while edge rusher keeps waiting.
Pick84
Rnd3
Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at slot 84 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick96
Rnd3
Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at pick No. 96 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick98
Rnd3
Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick104
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Kevin Winston Jr. while clear needs at edge rusher sat open.
Pick115
Rnd4
Jeffrey Bassa
The board had cheaper options than Jeffrey Bassa at No. 115, and it noticed. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick147
Rnd5
Logan Brown
Logan Brown at Round 5, Pick 9 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick151
Rnd5
Bhayshul Tuten
By-the-book stuff, Bhayshul Tuten at the 151st overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick152
Rnd5
Tyler Shough
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyler Shough at No. 152. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick165
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
A real head-scratcher, JJ Pegues in pick 165 is miles ahead of his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick168
Rnd5
DJ Giddens
They paid sticker price for DJ Giddens in the Round 5 slot, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180
Rnd6
Jack Nelson
No edge and no loss on Jack Nelson in pick No. 180; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick186
Rnd6
Clay Webb
A conviction pick on Clay Webb at the 186th pick that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick201
Rnd6
Thomas Fidone II
They took Thomas Fidone II at par in slot 201, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick207
Rnd6
R.J. Mickens
No drama and no debate, R.J. Mickens went about where he belonged in the 207th overall pick. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick216
Rnd6
Isaac TeSlaa
A reach on Isaac TeSlaa in Round 6, Pick 40; the board had better options right there. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick219
Rnd7
Bilhal Kone
They went early on Bilhal Kone in No. 219, and the value did not follow. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick222
Rnd7
Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson at pick 222 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick225
Rnd7
Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick232
Rnd7
Cody Lindenberg
Cody Lindenberg in pick No. 232 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick248
Rnd7
Jalen Travis
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jalen Travis this early at slot 248. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick249
Rnd7
Marcus Yarns
Marcus Yarns at the 249th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick252
Rnd7
Kain Medrano
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kain Medrano in Round 7, Pick 36, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
