Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesD FutureA
Larceny in the 224th pick lands the Colts a B-, Driskell and all.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Colts were there to profit. Ethan Driskell, the No. 186 name on the board, should have been long gone before Round 7, Pick 4.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. If Melton pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
They paid sticker price for Chop Robinson in pick 34, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick46 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
A tidy little value on Bralen Trice in No. 46, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick82 Rnd3 Junior Colson
A clean, defensible pick in the 82nd pick with a little surplus value in Junior Colson. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick103 Rnd4 Max Melton
A reach for Max Melton in slot 103; a little patience would have been rewarded. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick117 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany in the Round 4 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick153 Rnd5 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at pick No. 153 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick193 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
They read the board right and Curtis Jacobs was the payoff at the 193rd overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick224 Rnd7 Ethan Driskell
They will replay Ethan Driskell at Round 7, Pick 4 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick235 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones slid further than he should have, and the 235th pick is lovely value for the cornerback. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
