Good, not great, for the Colts: B. The tape said wait; the Colts did not. Frank Gore Jr. went at the Round 6 slot, a good 35 picks before the board was ready. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
Greenfield at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In the 15th overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick57
Rnd2
Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall in No. 57 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick82
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
A conviction pick on Khyree Jackson at pick 82 that the board grades a round light. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick89
Rnd3
Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop in slot 89 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick97
Rnd3
Brenden Rice
They paid sticker price for Brenden Rice in Round 3, Pick 34, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick117
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at pick No. 117 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick151
Rnd5
Javion Cohen
They left a pile of value on the table to take Javion Cohen this early at Round 5, Pick 15. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick191
Rnd6
Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick234
Rnd7
Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman in pick 234 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick246
Rnd7
Garret Greenfield
Steal is underselling it; Garret Greenfield at pick No. 246 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
