Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB+
The Colts fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Tanner McLachlan; the Colts did not wait, grabbing him 32 spots ahead at the 235th overall pick.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Colts paired the rookies with proven help, Dax Hill leading the way.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick 23 they get a problem off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick46 Rnd2 Ja'Lynn Polk
They liked Ja'Lynn Polk enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 2, Pick 14. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick59 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Javon Bullard. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick82 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 82 with a little surplus value in Cooper Beebe. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick115 Rnd4 DJ James
They paid sticker price for DJ James in the 115th pick, and that is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jaheim Bell
A real head-scratcher, Jaheim Bell in the Round 4 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick153 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett is a better player than slot 153 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick193 Rnd6 Christian Jones
No edge and no loss on Christian Jones in the 193rd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick235 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Tanner McLachlan well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
