Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Colts a B-.

The Colts clearly saw something nobody else did in Dani Dennis-Sutton, taking him 36 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Trotter.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick47 Rnd2 Dani Dennis-Sutton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dani Dennis-Sutton this early at the 47th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick78 Rnd3 Josiah Trotter
Value with a capital V on Josiah Trotter in pick No. 78, a genuine coup. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick124 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
The board had Tacario Davis higher than the 124th overall pick, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick154 Rnd5 Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst at Round 5, Pick 16 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick164 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun is a better player than the Round 5 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick216 Rnd6 Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris in No. 216 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick230 Rnd7 Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson at the 230th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick253 Rnd7 Luke Altmyer
Luke Altmyer at pick 253 is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
