Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB FutureB
More right than wrong for the Colts, and a B- to prove it.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Colts would have aced it. Beaux Collins at the 204th pick is 39 spots clear of where he belonged. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison in the Round 1 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick34 Rnd2 Nic Scourton
Fair-plus on Nic Scourton, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea at pick No. 76 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick108 Rnd4 Tyler Warren
A tidy little value on Tyler Warren in Round 4, Pick 12, a step better than break-even. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick140 Rnd5 Nick Martin
Nick Martin at No. 140 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts at the 141st pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick172 Rnd6 Tony Grimes
The board had cheaper options than Tony Grimes at the 172nd overall pick, and it noticed. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick204 Rnd7 Beaux Collins
Beaux Collins in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
