Draft Grade — Colts

Larceny in Round 7, Pick 22 lands the Colts a B-, Chestnut and all.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Duce Chestnut, No. 242, roughly 36 picks past where he belonged.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Hart reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In No. 21 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick53 Rnd2 Javon Foster
They took Javon Foster at par in Round 2, Pick 21, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick86 Rnd3 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at pick 86 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick121 Rnd4 Tate Ratledge
A tidy little value on Tate Ratledge in pick No. 121, a step better than break-even. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick158 Rnd5 Connor Colby
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Connor Colby. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick159 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
No edge and no loss on Ben Sinnott in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick199 Rnd6 Jamari Thrash
The board fumbled Jamari Thrash all the way to the 199th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick242 Rnd7 Duce Chestnut
A cornerback of that caliber at the 242nd pick is the definition of value, full stop. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson in No. 243 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
