Overall B

ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-

No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Colts.

The Colts torched the value chart for Brady Cook, taking him 88 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Higgins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick14 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty

The board had Ashton Jeanty higher than Round 1, Pick 14, and the running back fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.

Pick45 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant

They robbed the room for Kenneth Grant here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.

Pick80 Rnd3 Xavier Watts

Xavier Watts in slot 80 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.

Pick115 Rnd4 Oronde Gadsden II

A premium they did not need to pay, Oronde Gadsden II a notch or two before his time. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.

Pick150 Rnd5 Brady Cook

Brady Cook at the 150th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.

Pick187 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
