Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
The Colts turned the phones into found money: B+.

The real work happened on the phones. The Colts fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.

The Smith pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, running back and other spots. However the rest shakes out, Hopper at that price is a win they earned.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Adding L'Jarius Sneed by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a go-to option on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick49 Rnd2 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley at slot 49 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick97 Rnd3 Maason Smith
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Maason Smith at DT-EDGE with quarterback, running back and other spots open.
Pick151 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at the 151st pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick191 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ty'Ron Hopper at No. 191. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick234 Rnd7 Javontae Jean-Baptiste
A reasonable price with a little left over, Javontae Jean-Baptiste in the Round 7 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick237 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Tyler Owens in pick 237 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It adds depth where they could use a little.
