Draft Grade — Colts
Overall D+
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB+
The Colts bled value on every deal, hence the D+.

The Colts bet big and early on Christian Jones, 37 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. The process wobbled, and the D+ is where it lands.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Richardson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Good price on Xavier Legette in the 33rd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa at Round 2, Pick 23 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick60 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A straight-up fair deal on T'Vondre Sweat at the 60th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick82 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick91 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tykee Smith. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick117 Rnd4 Javion Cohen
A wild overpay on Javion Cohen in slot 117, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Keith Randolph Jr.
They reached into another round for Keith Randolph Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick153 Rnd5 Christian Jones
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Christian Jones well ahead of where he belonged. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley at the 193rd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick206 Rnd6 Dylan McMahon
A real head-scratcher, Dylan McMahon in slot 206 is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick235 Rnd7 Tatum Bethune
Tatum Bethune in Round 7, Pick 15 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick254 Rnd7 Demani Richardson
A quiet steal in No. 254: Demani Richardson for less than the market said. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
