Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueA NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Colts for Jeanty: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Ashton Jeanty, the No. 2 name on the board, stolen at No. 229. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In No. 13 they get a sticky cover corner at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick45 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at Round 2, Pick 13 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick77 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Tyler Warren in pick 77, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick114 Rnd4 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at slot 114 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick151 Rnd5 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick189 Rnd6 Colston Loveland
Somehow Colston Loveland was still sitting there in the 189th pick, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick229 Rnd7 Ashton Jeanty
The board fumbled Ashton Jeanty all the way to pick No. 229, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
