No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Colts. Nobody had Jay Higgins this high, and it is not close. The Colts reached 26 spots to get him at pick 52.
However the rest shakes out, Stewart at that price is a win they earned. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with tight end chief among the fixes.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Walter Nolen
In slot 19 they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value.
Pick52
Rnd2
Jay Higgins
They talked themselves into Jay Higgins at pick 52, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick84
Rnd3
Domani Jackson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Domani Jackson in the Round 3 slot. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick121
Rnd4
Jake Briningstool
A big swing on Jake Briningstool at Round 4, Pick 20, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick138
Rnd4
Shemar Stewart
Shemar Stewart in No. 138 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
