Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureC+
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Colts a B.

Nobody else had Layden Robinson anywhere near pick 151. The Colts did, by 24 spots, and that gap is the whole story. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Turner.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In No. 24 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick25 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. at the 25th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick82 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
A straight-up fair deal on Kris Abrams-Draine at pick 82, value and slot in agreement. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick87 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock in the Round 3 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick117 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher at slot 117 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick151 Rnd5 Layden Robinson
They talked themselves into Layden Robinson at the 151st overall pick, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick174 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at the Round 5 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick191 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at the 191st pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick234 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
A wild overpay on Sam Hartman in Round 7, Pick 14, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
