Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Colts did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Colts left quarterback untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Landing Bertrand that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Reaching for Jackson left real value on the table behind him. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick No. 15 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick46 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at Round 2, Pick 14 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick82 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in pick 82 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick117 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
They paid sticker price for Theo Johnson in No. 117, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick151 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at the 151st pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick191 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in the 191st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick234 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
A quiet steal in slot 234: JD Bertrand for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
