Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesC+ FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Colts, and a B- to prove it.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Colts never addressed wide receiver, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The Sanders reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Job largely done: tight end settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The back end got a real overhaul.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get an island corner at fair value. More want than need.
Pick46 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
They paid up for Ja'Tavion Sanders at the 46th pick when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick95 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland in pick No. 95 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick117 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
They paid sticker price for Justin Eboigbe in the 117th overall pick, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick132 Rnd4 James Williams
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on James Williams. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick153 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
No edge and no loss on Edefuan Ulofoshio in pick 153; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick193 Rnd6 Christian Jones
No drama and no debate, Christian Jones went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick235 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at slot 235 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
