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

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Colts spent slot 235 on Cody Simon, a name most had 41 spots down the list. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. Landing Robinson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Offensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a potential shutdown corner. More want than need.
Pick46 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson slipping to the 46th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It fills a real need, too.
Pick82 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at the Round 3 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick117 Rnd4 James Williams
A conviction pick on James Williams at the 117th overall pick that the board grades a round light. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick153 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick 153 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick193 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A straight-up fair deal on Christian Jones at pick No. 193, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick235 Rnd7 Cody Simon
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Cody Simon. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
