Draft Grade — Colts
Overall
D+
ValueC
NeedB-
TradesF
FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Colts to a D+. When the story of this class is written, it opens with Jared Wiley at slot 118, a reach of 82 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Too much went sideways, and the D+ is the honest tally.
They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.
They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a ballhawk on the outside. More want than need.
Pick53
Rnd2
Marshawn Kneeland
They left a pile of value on the table to take Marshawn Kneeland this early at the 53rd pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick54
Rnd2
Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They took Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick81
Rnd3
Brenden Rice
The board had cheaper options than Brenden Rice at pick 81, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick82
Rnd3
Cade Stover
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cade Stover. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick85
Rnd3
Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany in No. 85 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick116
Rnd4
Johnny Wilson
A reach on Johnny Wilson in the 116th overall pick; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick117
Rnd4
James Williams
A straight-up fair deal on James Williams at Round 4, Pick 17, value and slot in agreement. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick118
Rnd4
Jared Wiley
They reached a country mile for Jared Wiley at pick No. 118, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick119
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
They went early on Mohamed Kamara in the 119th pick, and the value did not follow. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick150
Rnd5
Jarrian Jones
By-the-book stuff, Jarrian Jones at No. 150 squarely in line with his ranking. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick160
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick190
Rnd6
Edefuan Ulofoshio
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Edefuan Ulofoshio. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick234
Rnd7
Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal in pick 234 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
