Larceny in Round 6, Pick 13 lands the Colts a B-, Shough and all.

Somebody in the Round 6 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Colts sat still while Tyler Shough, the No. 137 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. Job largely done: quarterback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In pick No. 14 they get an island corner, outstanding value to boot. More want than need.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Fair-plus on Jihaad Campbell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick80 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
By-the-book stuff, Mason Taylor at No. 80 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick116 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
A tidy bit of business in the 116th overall pick, where Malachi Moore graded well above the range. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick152 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
They took Bhayshul Tuten at par in slot 152, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick191 Rnd6 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough at Round 6, Pick 13 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick234 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier at the Round 7 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
