Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Colts kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Colts spent real capital to be 32 picks early on Junior Colson, and the board is going to hold them to it. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
By-the-book stuff, Taliese Fuaga at the 15th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick46 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
No edge and no loss on Xavier Worthy in pick 46; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick82 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson in Round 3, Pick 18 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick117 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
A straight-up fair deal on Kris Abrams-Draine at No. 117, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick153 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at pick No. 153 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick193 Rnd6 Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas at the 193rd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick235 Rnd7 DeMonte Capehart
Value said wait; DeMonte Capehart in pick No. 235 says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
