Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Larceny in Round 2, Pick 14 lands the Colts a B, Mitchell and all.

The board owed the Colts one, and it paid up: Quinyon Mitchell, the No. 19 name on the board, sitting there at No. 46 like a gift left on the doorstep. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Ulofoshio reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In No. 15 they get a difference-maker at receiver, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick46 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
They robbed the room for Quinyon Mitchell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick116 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
They paid sticker price for Sataoa Laumea in the 116th pick, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick150 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
A reach on Mason McCormick in pick No. 150; the board had better options right there. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick190 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
A wide receiver of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick234 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
A conviction pick on Edefuan Ulofoshio at slot 234 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
