Grand theft in slot 227: the Colts steal Vidal and grade out a B+. Somebody in the Round 7 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Colts sat still while Kimani Vidal, the No. 191 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. The Milton III pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
The offense got the lion's share of the attention.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick 27 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in the 57th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick60
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at pick No. 60 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. The roster fit checks out.
Pick82
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the 82nd overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick86
Rnd3
Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at Round 3, Pick 23 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick90
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
They read the board right and Mike Sainristil was the payoff at the Round 3 slot. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick91
Rnd3
Cade Stover
No drama and no debate, Cade Stover went about where he belonged in No. 91. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick99
Rnd3
Mohamed Kamara
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Mohamed Kamara well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick117
Rnd4
Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in slot 117 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick125
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at No. 125 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick140
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in the Round 5 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick153
Rnd5
Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in the 153rd pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick193
Rnd6
Christian Jones
Christian Jones at pick 193 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick203
Rnd6
Josh Proctor
The board had Josh Proctor higher than pick No. 203, and the safety fell to them anyway. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick205
Rnd6
Omar Speights
A straight-up fair deal on Omar Speights at Round 6, Pick 30, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick227
Rnd7
Kimani Vidal
They robbed the room for Kimani Vidal here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick235
Rnd7
Carson Steele
They left a pile of value on the table to take Carson Steele this early at the 235th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
