Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Colts: B-.

The Colts looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick No. 191 regardless, 45 picks early.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a lockdown presence outside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick46 Rnd2 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley in No. 46 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick82 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick117 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
They took Theo Johnson at par in the 117th pick, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick151 Rnd5 Fabien Lovett
A real head-scratcher, Fabien Lovett in pick No. 151 is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick191 Rnd6 Edefuan Ulofoshio
They talked themselves into Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick 191, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick234 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Frank Gore Jr. in the 234th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
