Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Colts let Jackson fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Colts were there to profit. Ja'Quinden Jackson, the No. 110 name on the board, should have been long gone before the Round 6 slot. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They are betting Wells Jr. proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick47 Rnd2 James Pearce Jr.
Circle this one: James Pearce Jr. at slot 47 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick79 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at pick No. 79 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick116 Rnd4 Colston Loveland
Taking Colston Loveland in Round 4, Pick 15 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick152 Rnd5 Antwane Wells Jr.
A big swing on Antwane Wells Jr. at the 152nd pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick191 Rnd6 Ja'Quinden Jackson
They robbed the room for Ja'Quinden Jackson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in pick 231 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
