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

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Colts would have aced it. Isaac Rex at No. 232 is 60 spots clear of where he belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. However the rest shakes out, Kinchens at that price is a win they earned.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In the 15th pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick46 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
The board had Kamren Kinchens higher than pick No. 46, and the safety fell to them anyway. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick82 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
A straight-up fair deal on Roman Wilson at the 82nd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick118 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
No drama and no debate, Kris Abrams-Draine went about where he belonged in pick 118. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick150 Rnd5 Layden Robinson
Layden Robinson in slot 150 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick193 Rnd6 Christian Jones
They paid sticker price for Christian Jones in Round 6, Pick 18, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick232 Rnd7 Isaac Rex
Isaac Rex in the 232nd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
