Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Colts: B-.

The Evan Anderson selection is the head-turner. The Colts reached 48 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
A clean, defensible pick in Round 1, Pick 15 with a little surplus value in Rome Odunze. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Nothing to complain about; Javon Bullard went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick82 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
They jumped the gun on Christian Mahogany, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick117 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
No edge and no loss on Elijah Jones in slot 117; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick151 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kitan Oladapo. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A reach on Jared Wiley in pick 191; the board had better options right there. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick234 Rnd7 Evan Anderson
They talked themselves into Evan Anderson at pick 234, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
