Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Colts won the night they stopped Everette from sliding. Grade: B-.

It is a puzzling start. The Colts had quarterback, tight end and other spots to solve and reached instead for Daylen Everette, a cornerback, at slot 113. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Everette pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick47 Rnd2 Chris Johnson
A straight-up fair deal on Chris Johnson at pick No. 47, value and slot in agreement. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick78 Rnd3 Taurean York
A tidy little value on Taurean York in No. 78, a step better than break-even. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick113 Rnd4 Daylen Everette
Of all the spots to shop, they chose cornerback. Daylen Everette in the 113th overall pick leaves quarterback, tight end and other spots for later.
Pick154 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts in the Round 5 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick216 Rnd6 Tristan Leigh
Tristan Leigh at the 216th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The roster fit checks out.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jalen Catalon
No edge and no loss on Jalen Catalon in pick 230; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick253 Rnd7 Rueben Owens II
Value with a capital V on Rueben Owens II in slot 253, a genuine coup. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
