Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Colts did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Desmond Watson; the Colts did not wait, grabbing him 47 spots ahead at Round 6, Pick 13. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with tight end the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Warren at the 14th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick45 Rnd2 Carson Schwesinger
A big swing on Carson Schwesinger at the Round 2 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick80 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They paid a round early for Charles Grant in slot 80, more than the board wanted. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick117 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. at pick 117 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick151 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on O'Donnell Fortune. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick189 Rnd6 Desmond Watson
They reached into another round for Desmond Watson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick232 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
No drama and no debate, Jermari Harris went about where he belonged in the 232nd pick. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
