Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Colts: B.

The Colts went off the board in a big way for Christian Jones, 44 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The Castles value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a No. 1 receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens at pick No. 35 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick46 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Value with a capital V on Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in slot 46, a genuine coup. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick82 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at No. 82 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick117 Rnd4 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick153 Rnd5 Christian Jones
This one needs a full-page explanation: Christian Jones in pick 153, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick193 Rnd6 McCallan Castles
They robbed the room for McCallan Castles here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
Circle this one: Jase McClellan at No. 235 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
