Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Colts: B-.

The Colts' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it.

The Johnson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The Gore Jr. steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In slot 15 they get a double-digit-sack hope. A real need, handled.
Pick46 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
They paid up for Xavier Worthy at the 46th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick82 Rnd3 Austin Booker
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Austin Booker. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick118 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
The board had cheaper options than Theo Johnson at the Round 4 slot, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
They took Jarrian Jones at par in No. 150, which is nothing to complain about. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
No edge and no loss on Jaylan Ford in pick 193; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick232 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at the 232nd pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
