Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Colts a B.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Elijah Simmons in the 232nd overall pick, a good 115 spots before the room expected him.

That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. With running back, tight end and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them.

A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 15 they get a true top target. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Nate Wiggins
They robbed the room for Nate Wiggins here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick82 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Taking Javon Bullard in the 82nd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick118 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A curious use of pick 118. Running back, tight end and other spots needed the pick; a cornerback in Khyree Jackson did not.
Pick150 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
They let Malik Mustapha come to them and pounced at pick No. 150. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick193 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at slot 193 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick232 Rnd7 Elijah Simmons
Elijah Simmons at the 232nd overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
