Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Colts, and a B- to prove it.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Darius Robinson at the 41st pick is 80 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Landing DeJean that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In No. 25 they get a potential shutdown corner, outstanding value to boot.
Pick41 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at slot 41 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick46 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
They paid up for Ja'Tavion Sanders at the Round 2 slot when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick82 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at pick No. 82 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick118 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at Round 4, Pick 18 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick150 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio in the 150th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick193 Rnd6 Javon Baker
Good price on Javon Baker in pick No. 193, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick232 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
They did well to land Ryan Watts in the Round 7 slot, just ahead of his grade. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
