Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC FutureB+
The Colts robbed the room for Smith. Final grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Colts watched Brashard Smith slide 85 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Every board in the league had Dart lower, and that gap is the story. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get a disruptive interior force at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick80 Rnd3 Jaxson Dart
They reached into another round for Jaxson Dart, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick81 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at the 81st pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick116 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in the 116th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick121 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
The board fumbled Barrett Carter all the way to pick No. 121, and they scooped it up. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick188 Rnd6 Brashard Smith
Steal is underselling it; Brashard Smith at slot 188 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jeffrey Bassa
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jeffrey Bassa in No. 192, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick194 Rnd6 Kobe King
Somehow Kobe King was still sitting there in pick 194, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick196 Rnd6 Seth McLaughlin
A reach on Seth McLaughlin in pick 196; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick232 Rnd7 Nohl Williams
They went early on Nohl Williams in the Round 7 slot, and the value did not follow. A minor itch, scratched.
