Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Colts won the night they stopped Bullock from sliding. Grade: B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Calen Bullock tumbling to the Colts in pick 82 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Jones pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 JC Latham
In No. 15 they get a blindside protector. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
A slide stopped in pick 46, with Xavier Legette worth more than the price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick82 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
The board fumbled Calen Bullock all the way to slot 82, and they scooped it up. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick117 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
They paid a round early for Donovan Jackson in pick No. 117, more than the board wanted. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick153 Rnd5 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in Round 5, Pick 17 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick193 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in the 193rd pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick235 Rnd7 Brian Ugwu
No edge and no loss on Brian Ugwu in the 235th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
