The Colts did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

Nobody had Luke McCaffrey this high, and it is not close. The Colts reached 23 spots to get him at Round 4, Pick 26.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

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

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get juice off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick46 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the 46th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick82 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at No. 82 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick126 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick151 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
They paid a round early for Tykee Smith in the 151st overall pick, more than the board wanted. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick169 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in pick 169 is fair value, right on his grade. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley at pick No. 191 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick234 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at the 234th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
