Draft Grade — Colts
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB TradesD+ FutureB-
The jury is out on the Colts. For now, C+.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Nathaniel Watson, 27 picks early at slot 232. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Puni steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In pick 15 they get a premier pass rusher. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at Round 2, Pick 14 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick82 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Roman Wilson in the 82nd pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick108 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
The board had cheaper options than Darius Robinson at the Round 4 slot, and it noticed. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick118 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni is a better player than the 118th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick150 Rnd5 Renardo Green
Renardo Green in pick No. 150 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
They read the board right and Jaylan Ford was the payoff at slot 193. The roster fit checks out.
Pick232 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson in the 232nd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
