Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Colson should have been long gone. The Colts pounced, and earned a B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Colts watched Junior Colson slide 32 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The Flournoy pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In slot 15 they get a ballhawk on the outside. More want than need.
Pick46 Rnd2 Malachi Corley
A conviction pick on Malachi Corley at pick 46 that the board grades a round light. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick82 Rnd3 Junior Colson
Junior Colson in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick117 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves is a better player than Round 4, Pick 17 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick151 Rnd5 Chau Smith-Wade
Somehow Chau Smith-Wade was still sitting there in the 151st overall pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick191 Rnd6 Ryan Flournoy
They jumped the gun on Ryan Flournoy, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick234 Rnd7 KT Leveston
KT Leveston at No. 234 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
