Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesC+ FutureB+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Colts and McCaffrey: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Luke McCaffrey tumbling to the Colts in the Round 7 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Colts indulged a want in Smith while a need in quarterback, running back and other spots stayed open.

The Baker pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Quinyon Mitchell. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick46 Rnd2 Dallas Turner
Dallas Turner at pick No. 46 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick82 Rnd3 Javon Baker
They paid up for Javon Baker at slot 82 when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick115 Rnd4 Maason Smith
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the 115th pick on Maason Smith with quarterback, running back and other spots unsolved.
Pick117 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the Round 4 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick151 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
A clean, defensible pick in No. 151 with a little surplus value in Trevor Keegan. The roster fit checks out.
Pick191 Rnd6 Mason McCormick
Somehow Mason McCormick was still sitting there in pick 191, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick234 Rnd7 Luke McCaffrey
Taking Luke McCaffrey in Round 7, Pick 14 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
