Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureB
More right than wrong for the Colts, and a B to prove it.

The Colts bet big and early on Jordan Burch, 23 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. That Nwankpa pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Job largely done: running back settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the 12th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Xavier Nwankpa
The board had Xavier Nwankpa higher than pick No. 49, and the safety fell to them anyway. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick76 Rnd3 Trevor Etienne
They did well to land Trevor Etienne in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick108 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
A premium they did not need to pay, Rylie Mills a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick140 Rnd5 Brant Kuithe
Brant Kuithe in pick 140 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick172 Rnd6 Jordan Burch
Jordan Burch at Round 6, Pick 12 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick204 Rnd7 Fentrell Cypress II
They paid sticker price for Fentrell Cypress II in the 204th overall pick, and that is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
