Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Colts.

For all the boxes ticked, the Colts skipped the loudest one: quarterback is exactly as bare as it was. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The Speights pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a lockdown presence outside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick46 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ja'Tavion Sanders. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick82 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan in pick 82 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick117 Rnd4 Cooper Beebe
Good price on Cooper Beebe in the 117th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick153 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
A reach on Jonah Monheim in pick No. 153; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick193 Rnd6 Omar Speights
They talked themselves into Omar Speights at the Round 6 slot, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jason Henderson
Jason Henderson at the 235th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
