Draft Grade — Colts
Overall C+
ValueD- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Colts did enough to get by: C+.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Colts would have aced it. Malachi Nelson at pick 106 is 471 spots clear of where he belonged. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

However the rest shakes out, Boswell at that price is a win they earned. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Brandon Inniss
Value said wait; Brandon Inniss in slot 38 says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick69 Rnd3 Mark Fletcher Jr.
They paid sticker price for Mark Fletcher Jr. in the 69th pick, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick81 Rnd3 Will Echoles
Taking Will Echoles in pick No. 81 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Malachi Nelson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Malachi Nelson this early at the 106th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick133 Rnd4 Jacarrius Peak
Circle this one: Jacarrius Peak at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick145 Rnd5 Sammy Brown
They will replay Sammy Brown at pick 145 for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick174 Rnd5 Tyrique Tucker
They robbed the room for Tyrique Tucker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick220 Rnd6 Brody Foley
Brody Foley at the 220th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Anthony Boswell
You do not let an offensive lineman like Anthony Boswell reach pick No. 225 and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick253 Rnd7 Smith Snowden
A cornerback of that caliber at the 253rd pick is the definition of value, full stop. A minor need, but a need all the same.
