Draft Grade — Colts
Overall C-
ValueF NeedB- TradesB- FutureC+
Grand theft in No. 203: the Colts steal Styles and grade out a C-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Sonny Styles slide, and the Colts were the ones holding the card at the 203rd pick. Highway robbery. It nets out a thoroughly average C-.

They will need Johnson to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. It is not that Delane is a bad player; it is that the Colts had louder needs to answer first. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Hit on Dijon Johnson and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick47 Rnd2 Dijon Johnson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dijon Johnson well ahead of where he belonged. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick78 Rnd3 PJ Williams
PJ Williams at the 78th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick113 Rnd4 Mansoor Delane
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 113 on Mansoor Delane with quarterback, running back and other spots unsolved.
Pick154 Rnd5 Eli Raridon
The board fumbled Eli Raridon all the way to the 154th pick, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick203 Rnd6 Sonny Styles
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Sonny Styles in Round 6, Pick 24, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick216 Rnd6 Brenen Thompson
Brenen Thompson in pick 216 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
