Draft Grade — Colts

FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Colts: B-. It is a puzzling start. The Colts had quarterback, offensive lineman and other spots to solve and reached instead for Chris Johnson, a cornerback, at the Round 4 slot.
The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The cost of the Endries reach is exactly the players who went right after him.
On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
A.J. Harris
In pick No. 32 they get an island corner, outstanding value to boot.
Pick64
Rnd2
Sonny Styles
A tidy bit of business in No. 64, where Sonny Styles graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick96
Rnd3
Jack Endries
They jumped the gun on Jack Endries, taking him earlier than his grade liked. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick132
Rnd4
Chris Johnson
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the 132nd overall pick on Chris Johnson with quarterback, offensive lineman and other spots unsolved.
Pick173
Rnd5
Zane Durant
Zane Durant at pick No. 173 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick217
Rnd6
Jahiem White
A clean, defensible pick in the 217th pick with a little surplus value in Jahiem White. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick249
Rnd7
Robert Spears-Jennings
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Robert Spears-Jennings at the Round 7 slot is the proof. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick254
Rnd7
Hykeem Williams
A premium they did not need to pay, Hykeem Williams a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
