Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueA- NeedC+ TradesB+ FutureB-
Grand theft in the 232nd overall pick: the Colts steal Kiser and grade out a B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Jack Kiser tumbling to the Colts in No. 232 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

With wide receiver, quarterback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 14th pick they get a press-man option on the boundary. More want than need.
Pick45 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Circle this one: Malaki Starks at No. 45 is a fall that decides a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick80 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
A surprising call. With wide receiver, quarterback and other spots still to address, they spent the 80th overall pick on Xavier Watts, a safety they were not short of.
Pick116 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cam Skattebo. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick188 Rnd6 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at pick No. 188 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick232 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jack Kiser in Round 7, Pick 16, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
