The Colts cashed the board's mistake on Wheatley: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Zakee Wheatley, the No. 83 name on the board, stolen at the Round 4 slot.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick47 Rnd2 Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse at No. 47 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick78 Rnd3 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson in the 78th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick113 Rnd4 Zakee Wheatley
Somehow Zakee Wheatley was still sitting there in the 113th overall pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick154 Rnd5 Hezekiah Masses
Steal is underselling it; Hezekiah Masses at slot 154 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick216 Rnd6 Eric McAlister
Taking Eric McAlister in pick No. 216 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick230 Rnd7 Noah Whittington
Noah Whittington at Round 7, Pick 14 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick253 Rnd7 Alan Herron
By-the-book stuff, Alan Herron at pick 253 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
