Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Colts kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Christian Jones at the 153rd overall pick, a reach of 37 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the Round 1 slot they get a lockdown presence outside. More want than need.
Pick46 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in No. 46 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick82 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the 82nd pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick117 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
A conviction pick on Tommy Eichenberg at pick 117 that the board grades a round light. The roster fit checks out.
Pick153 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in pick No. 153 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick193 Rnd6 Braiden McGregor
Braiden McGregor at Round 6, Pick 18 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick235 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
They reached into another round for Tanner McLachlan, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
