Omaha18 DRAFTING FOR THEColts

FutureB-
The Colts checked most of the boxes and earned a B. For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Colts walked out of the weekend still thin at wide receiver, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.
The Jeanty pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They are betting Biggers proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Ashton Jeanty
In the 14th overall pick they get a bell-cow for the offense at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick45
Rnd2
Xavier Watts
No edge and no loss on Xavier Watts in pick No. 45; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick80
Rnd3
Chris Paul Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Chris Paul Jr. at slot 80 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick117
Rnd4
Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson in the Round 4 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick151
Rnd5
Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in the 151st pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick189
Rnd6
Jay Higgins
A premium they did not need to pay, Jay Higgins a notch or two before his time. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick232
Rnd7
Zeek Biggers
Zeek Biggers in pick 232 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
