Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Colts won the night they stopped Polk from sliding. Grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Colts watched Ja'Lynn Polk slide 138 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

Reaching for Steele left real value on the table behind him. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In pick No. 15 they get a problem off the edge. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Nice patience on Xavier Legette, who had no business lasting to No. 46. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick82 Rnd3 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Steal is underselling it; Ja'Tavion Sanders at the 82nd overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick117 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
They barely believed it either: Mike Sainristil still on the board at the Round 4 slot. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick153 Rnd5 Cade Stover
Circle this one: Cade Stover at Round 5, Pick 17 is a fall that decides a draft. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick193 Rnd6 Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk in the 193rd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick235 Rnd7 Carson Steele
Carson Steele at pick 235 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
