Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA FutureB-
The Colts cashed the board's mistake on Mbow: B+.

The Colts spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Marcus Mbow, the No. 51 name on the board, in Round 3, Pick 16.

They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 1 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The Troy Andersen deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the 14th pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value.
Pick46 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They robbed the room for Malaki Starks here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick80 Rnd3 Marcus Mbow
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Marcus Mbow in the 80th overall pick, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
