Draft Grade — Colts
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureD-
The Colts got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D+.

Nobody had Jordan Magee this high, and it is not close. The Colts reached 31 spots to get him at slot 191. Put together, it is a D+.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The Franklin pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In pick 8 they get a moveable chess piece at tight end. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick24 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the 24th pick they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. More want than need.
Pick41 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
The board had cheaper options than Xavier Worthy at the 41st overall pick, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick50 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
Troy Franklin slipping to slot 50 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick151 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at the Round 5 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. The roster fit checks out.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee at No. 191 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick234 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Tyler Owens in pick No. 234 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
