Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Manning in the fold, and a B for the Colts.

Start where it matters. The Colts took Arch Manning to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Every board in the league had Anderson lower, and that gap is the story.

The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Arch Manning
In the 8th overall pick they get the face of the franchise. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick40 Rnd2 Makai Lemon
Good price on Makai Lemon in No. 40, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick72 Rnd3 Kamari Ramsey
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kamari Ramsey in pick No. 72. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick108 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore in slot 108 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick147 Rnd5 Monroe Mills
Monroe Mills at the 147th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jalon Daniels
A slide stopped in the Round 6 slot, with Jalon Daniels worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick221 Rnd7 Barion Brown
Circle this one: Barion Brown at Round 7, Pick 5 is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick247 Rnd7 Raheem Anderson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Raheem Anderson. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick249 Rnd7 Ty Simpson
They let Ty Simpson come to them and pounced at slot 249. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
