Draft Grade — Colts
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Colts worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Colts started one anyway for Christian Jones, 37 picks ahead of schedule.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
The board had Brian Thomas Jr. higher than No. 37, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick46 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A reach on T'Vondre Sweat in slot 46; the board had better options right there. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick82 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at pick No. 82 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick117 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Good price on Beau Brade in Round 4, Pick 17, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick153 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Value said wait; Christian Jones in the Round 5 slot says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick193 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor at the 193rd overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick235 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
Tanner McLachlan in the Round 7 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
