Grand theft in No. 82: the Colts steal Wilson and grade out a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Colts were there to profit. Roman Wilson, the No. 46 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 82.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Colts indulged a want in Hart while a need in quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots stayed open. Every board in the league had Spann-Ford lower, and that gap is the story.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
They robbed the room for Kool-Aid McKinstry here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick82 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson in No. 82 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick117 Rnd4 Cam Hart
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots to take Cam Hart, a cornerback that was not the priority.
Pick151 Rnd5 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo in the 151st overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick191 Rnd6 Tykee Smith
Taking Tykee Smith in pick No. 191 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick234 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
They paid up for Brevyn Spann-Ford at pick 234 when waiting would have done the job. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
