Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB
The Colts won the night they stopped Skattebo from sliding. Grade: B+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Cam Skattebo got past him. The Colts do not have to explain a thing at pick No. 187.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Stackhouse has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. Adding Lukas Van Ness by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In slot 23 they get a rangy last line of defense, and a steal at that.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at No. 45 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick54 Rnd2 Darien Porter
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Darien Porter well ahead of where he belonged. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick80 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
Circle this one: Kaleb Johnson at the Round 3 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick115 Rnd4 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm in the 115th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick122 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 4, Pick 21 is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in pick No. 150 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick158 Rnd5 Nazir Stackhouse
They reached a country mile for Nazir Stackhouse at pick 158, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick187 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
You do not let a running back like Cam Skattebo reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick232 Rnd7 DJ Campbell
They robbed the room for DJ Campbell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
