Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB- TradesB+ FutureA+
The Colts let Smith fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

The Colts spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Brashard Smith, the No. 101 name on the board, in Round 5, Pick 17. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.

Riley has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up.

The Thomas pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with wide receiver, quarterback and other spots still on the board.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick44 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at the Round 2 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick51 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
You do not let a tight end like Tyler Warren reach pick No. 51 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick63 Rnd2 Darien Porter
They liked Darien Porter enough to skip the value, taking him in the 63rd pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick65 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
They left a pile of value on the table to take Ajani Cornelius this early at Round 3, Pick 1. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick68 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at slot 68 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick82 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Azareye'h Thomas at cornerback with wide receiver, quarterback and other spots open.
Pick83 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Andrew Mukuba while clear needs at wide receiver, quarterback and other spots sat open.
Pick86 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at pick 86 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick87 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
They robbed the room for TreVeyon Henderson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick89 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. in slot 89 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick102 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
They did well to land Mason Taylor in pick No. 102, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick114 Rnd4 Jake Majors
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jake Majors in pick 114, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick118 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
The board fumbled Smael Mondon Jr. all the way to Round 4, Pick 17, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick150 Rnd5 Connor Colby
They reached into another round for Connor Colby, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick154 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
They will replay Brashard Smith at the 154th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at the 163rd pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick184 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley at slot 184 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
