Draft Grade — Colts
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly executed. Colts: C+.

The Colts clearly saw something nobody else did in Clay Webb, taking him 44 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

The Castro pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Benjamin Morrison
In the 14th pick they get an island corner, though the board says they badly overpaid. Need was not the driver here.
Pick45 Rnd2 Mykel Williams
Taking Mykel Williams in the Round 2 slot is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick80 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
They barely believed it either: TreVeyon Henderson still on the board at pick 80. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick117 Rnd4 Sebastian Castro
Somehow Sebastian Castro was still sitting there in No. 117, and they pounced on premier safety value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick151 Rnd5 Clay Webb
They talked themselves into Clay Webb at the 151st overall pick, and the board did not agree. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick189 Rnd6 Kyle Williams
A quiet steal in slot 189: Kyle Williams for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick232 Rnd7 Robert Longerbeam
Nice patience on Robert Longerbeam, who had no business lasting to the Round 7 slot. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
