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

The Colts clearly saw something nobody else did in Antwaun Powell-Ryland, taking him 69 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

Landing Warren that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will answer for taking safety early while quarterback and running back went begging.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick No. 19 they get a centerfielder for the defense, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
A surprising call. With quarterback and running back still to address, they spent the 51st pick on Malaki Starks, a safety they were not short of.
Pick54 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge at the 54th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick77 Rnd3 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Antwaun Powell-Ryland. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick83 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tyleik Williams in pick 83. It fills a real need, too.
Pick85 Rnd3 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in No. 85 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick113 Rnd4 Tyler Warren
A tight end of that caliber at pick 113 is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick152 Rnd5 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison at No. 152 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick189 Rnd6 Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford at slot 189 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick227 Rnd7 J.Michael Sturdivant
A slide stopped in the 227th pick, with J.Michael Sturdivant worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
