Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA-
The Colts fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

The McKade Mettauer pick is the one that will follow the Colts into the fall. They took him 35 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Spending an early pick on DT-EDGE with quarterback, running back and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In pick 27 they get a weapon on the perimeter, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick46 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
They took Calen Bullock at par in the 46th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick82 Rnd3 Maason Smith
Of all the spots to shop, they chose DT-EDGE. Maason Smith in Round 3, Pick 18 leaves quarterback, running back and other spots for later.
Pick117 Rnd4 James Williams
A curious use of No. 117. Quarterback, running back and other spots needed the pick; a safety in James Williams did not.
Pick153 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick No. 153 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick193 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Nothing to complain about; Christian Jones went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick235 Rnd7 McKade Mettauer
They talked themselves into McKade Mettauer at Round 7, Pick 15, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
