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

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Solomon Byrd at No. 191, a reach of 66 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A- to cap it.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Sainristil. The phones were where this weekend was really won. With quarterback, tight end and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

In the end it comes back to Rome Odunze, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 16th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick17 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick No. 17 they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette is a better player than the Round 2 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick81 Rnd3 DJ James
They barely believed it either: DJ James still on the board at slot 81. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick82 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in pick 82 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick114 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Mike Sainristil at cornerback with quarterback, tight end and other spots open.
Pick116 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster at pick No. 116 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick117 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams at slot 117 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick151 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Good price on Tommy Eichenberg in Round 5, Pick 15, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick179 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
They talked themselves into Kendall Milton at pick 179, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick191 Rnd6 Solomon Byrd
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Solomon Byrd well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
They paid up for Jalen Sundell at No. 234 when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
