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

The Colts treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the 193rd overall pick on Brevyn Spann-Ford a full 37 spots early.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Simpson.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a premier pass rusher. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Kalen King
They took Kalen King at par in pick 46, which is nothing to complain about. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick82 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick117 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Fair-plus on Tommy Eichenberg, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick153 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
They read the board right and Jaylin Simpson was the payoff at the 153rd overall pick. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick193 Rnd6 Brevyn Spann-Ford
Brevyn Spann-Ford at No. 193 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick235 Rnd7 Cody Schrader
A straight-up fair deal on Cody Schrader at No. 235, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
