Draft Grade — Colts
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB TradesD+ FutureC+
Wilson should have been long gone. The Colts pounced, and earned a C+.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Colts watched Johnny Wilson slide 43 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

They will need Ulofoshio to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
They paid sticker price for Quinyon Mitchell in the 18th overall pick, and that is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick60 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in Round 2, Pick 28 lands just on the right side of the ledger. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick80 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop in slot 80 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick117 Rnd4 Will Shipley
By-the-book stuff, Will Shipley at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick128 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves in the 128th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick151 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
They took Mason McCormick at par in pick No. 151, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick163 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at pick 163 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick191 Rnd6 Edefuan Ulofoshio
They paid up for Edefuan Ulofoshio at No. 191 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick234 Rnd7 Logan Lee
A conviction pick on Logan Lee at Round 7, Pick 14 that the board grades a round light. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
