Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Colts: B-.

The tape said wait; the Colts did not. Jo'Quavious Marks went at the 140th overall pick, a good 41 picks before the board was ready. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up. The Moore pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Tyler Booker
They talked themselves into Tyler Booker at pick No. 17, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick44 Rnd2 Oscar Delp
They reached a country mile for Oscar Delp at the 44th overall pick, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick49 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Maxwell Hairston. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick76 Rnd3 Rod Moore
Value with a capital V on Rod Moore in No. 76, a genuine coup. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick108 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
A wild overpay on Rylie Mills in the 108th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jo'Quavious Marks
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jo'Quavious Marks well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick172 Rnd6 Jaishawn Barham
Jaishawn Barham at the 172nd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick204 Rnd7 Lathan Ransom
No drama and no debate, Lathan Ransom went about where he belonged in the 204th pick. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
