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

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Colts were there to profit. Myles Harden, the No. 209 name on the board, should have been long gone before Round 7, Pick 14. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Every board in the league had Johnson lower, and that gap is the story.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In slot 15 they get an island corner at fair value. More want than need.
Pick47 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin at pick 47 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick82 Rnd3 Austin Booker
Austin Booker at the 82nd pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick107 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
A premium they did not need to pay, Theo Johnson a notch or two before his time. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick117 Rnd4 Christian Jones
They paid a round early for Christian Jones in pick No. 117, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick151 Rnd5 Beau Brade
A slide stopped in the 151st overall pick, with Beau Brade worth more than the price. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick191 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the Round 6 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick234 Rnd7 Myles Harden
A cornerback of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 14 is the definition of value, full stop. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
