Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Colts.

The Colts did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Quinn Ewers fell into slot 117. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They are betting Buchanan proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. Their trades came out a wash either way.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 15th pick they get a security blanket over the middle. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Trey Amos
By-the-book stuff, Trey Amos at Round 2, Pick 13 squarely in line with his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick80 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at No. 80 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick117 Rnd4 Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers in the Round 4 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick151 Rnd5 Logan Brown
Logan Brown in the 151st overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick189 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at slot 189 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick232 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Value said wait; Teddye Buchanan in pick No. 232 says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick242 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
A tidy little value on Jermari Harris in pick 242, a step better than break-even. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
