Draft Grade — Colts
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the Colts.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Colts shredded theirs for Luke Lachey. He came off 82 spots early, and the room will hear about it. A mixed bag that lands at C+.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. Edwards at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. With wide receiver, quarterback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them.

They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

If Shavon Revel Jr. and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Shavon Revel Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside, though they paid up to get him.
Pick49 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in the 49th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick80 Rnd3 Tacario Davis
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Tacario Davis at cornerback with wide receiver, quarterback and other spots open.
Pick116 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
Value with a capital V on Hollin Pierce in the 116th pick, a genuine coup. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick152 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
Value said wait; Luke Lachey in pick 152 says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick193 Rnd6 Anthony Belton
This one needs a full-page explanation: Anthony Belton in No. 193, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick232 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards in Round 7, Pick 18 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
