Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Colts: B-.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Colts walked right past.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Johnson. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a mismatch in the passing game at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at Round 2, Pick 13 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick80 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter in the 80th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick117 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson in slot 117 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick151 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore slid further than he should have, and No. 151 is lovely value for the safety. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick189 Rnd6 Connor Colby
A tidy little value on Connor Colby in pick No. 189, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick232 Rnd7 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie slipping to the 232nd overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
