Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 191st overall pick lands the Colts a B, McGlothern and all.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Dwight McGlothern, the No. 161 name on the board, stolen at pick 191.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Colts indulged a want in Jackson while a need in quarterback, running back and other spots stayed open.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
Rome Odunze at pick No. 15 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick46 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Somehow Kool-Aid McKinstry was still sitting there in Round 2, Pick 14, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick82 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Circle this one: Xavier Worthy at pick 82 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick117 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Khyree Jackson adds a cornerback and leaves quarterback, running back and other spots untouched.
Pick151 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
Taking Johnny Wilson in slot 151 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick191 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in the 191st overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick234 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
The board fumbled Nathaniel Watson all the way to the 234th pick, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
