Draft Grade — Colts

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 quarterback, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.
They are betting Romaine proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick54
Rnd2
Daylen Everette
They did well to land Daylen Everette in pick 54, just ahead of his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick85
Rnd3
Suntarine Perkins
Suntarine Perkins at slot 85 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick123
Rnd4
Austin Romaine
This one needs a full-page explanation: Austin Romaine in the Round 4 slot, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick162
Rnd5
Davison Igbinosun
They went early on Davison Igbinosun in No. 162, and the value did not follow. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick215
Rnd6
Quintrevion Wisner
Nothing to complain about; Quintrevion Wisner went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick238
Rnd7
Nolan Rucci
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Nolan Rucci. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick250
Rnd7
Barion Brown
Fair-plus on Barion Brown, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
