Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Colts: B-.

The Colts bet big and early on Korey Foreman, 81 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

However the rest shakes out, Freeling at that price is a win they earned. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In No. 8 they get an island corner at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick40 Rnd2 Max Klare
A tidy little value on Max Klare in pick 40, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick72 Rnd3 Arvell Reese
This one needs a full-page explanation: Arvell Reese in slot 72, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick108 Rnd4 Malachi Fields
Taking Malachi Fields in the 108th pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick147 Rnd5 Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling at the 147th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick186 Rnd6 Amare Campbell
Amare Campbell in pick No. 186 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick247 Rnd7 Korey Foreman
Korey Foreman in slot 247 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jamari Lyons
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jamari Lyons. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
