Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Johnson should have been long gone. The Colts pounced, and earned a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Kaleb Johnson, pick No. 191, roughly 140 picks past where he belonged.

They will need Lampkin to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with running back chief among the fixes.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 15th overall pick they get an island corner at fair value. More want than need.
Pick47 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They barely believed it either: Malaki Starks still on the board at pick 47. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick79 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at pick No. 79 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick116 Rnd4 Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin at slot 116 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
Circle this one: Jay Higgins at the 152nd pick is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick191 Rnd6 Kaleb Johnson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Kaleb Johnson in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick231 Rnd7 Rod Moore
Rod Moore at Round 7, Pick 17 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
