Nobody else had Clayton Smith anywhere near the 253rd overall pick. The Colts did, by 66 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. On value alone, Joly makes the weekend a net positive.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
