Draft Grade — Colts
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Colts.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Colts took Zion Tupuola-Fetui a full 24 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. However the rest shakes out, Kinchens at that price is a win they earned.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In the Round 1 slot they get a potential shutdown corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick47 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
The board had Xavier Legette higher than Round 2, Pick 15, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick52 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Nothing to complain about; Cooper Beebe went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick82 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
A safety of that caliber at pick 82 is the definition of value, full stop. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick107 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer in the 107th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick117 Rnd4 Maason Smith
They did well to land Maason Smith in the 117th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
A reach on Jaheim Bell in slot 151; the board had better options right there. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick191 Rnd6 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
Zion Tupuola-Fetui at the 191st overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick234 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Value said wait; Tyler Owens in pick No. 234 says they were not listening. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
