Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureC+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Colts and All: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Erick All got past him. The Colts do not have to explain a thing at pick 226. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The Jackson pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback and interior defensive lineman. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the Round 1 slot they get a press-man option on the boundary. Need was not the driver here.
Pick29 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In slot 29 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick46 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
No edge and no loss on Edgerrin Cooper in the 46th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick82 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
A straight-up fair deal on Marshawn Kneeland at pick No. 82, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick117 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went cornerback with Khyree Jackson while clear needs at quarterback and interior defensive lineman sat open.
Pick151 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at No. 151 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick191 Rnd6 Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader slid further than he should have, and Round 6, Pick 16 is lovely value for the running back. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick226 Rnd7 Erick All
Erick All at pick 226 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick234 Rnd7 Dominique Hampton
No drama and no debate, Dominique Hampton went about where he belonged in Round 7, Pick 14. A minor itch, scratched.
