Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Colts: B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Colts started one anyway for Julius Welschof, 168 picks ahead of schedule. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Hadden value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 2 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In pick No. 15 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value.
Pick46 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
A straight-up fair deal on Keon Coleman at slot 46, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick82 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
They did well to land Roman Wilson in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick118 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in Round 4, Pick 18 is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick150 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
A slide stopped in pick 150, with Kamal Hadden worth more than the price. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick193 Rnd6 Javon Baker
A reasonable price with a little left over, Javon Baker in the 193rd overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick232 Rnd7 Julius Welschof
Julius Welschof at Round 7, Pick 12 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
