Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB+
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Colts a B+.

The Colts ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided.

Hadden has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up.

The Greenfield value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
They took Brian Thomas Jr. at par in No. 25, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick46 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A tidy little value on Chris Braswell in pick 46, a step better than break-even. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
By-the-book stuff, Kamren Kinchens at pick No. 58 squarely in line with his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick82 Rnd3 Cam Hart
A reach on Cam Hart in Round 3, Pick 18; the board had better options right there. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick118 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick127 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Johnny Wilson. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick150 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in slot 150 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick193 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the 193rd pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick204 Rnd6 Erick All
They paid sticker price for Erick All in pick 204, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick232 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield is a better player than pick No. 232 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
