I don't believe in draft grades but I'll say that I like the Colts draft above all. The Colts did a great job restocking in the first post-Peyton draft; to include supporting their new franchise QB by bringing in one of his favorite college targets. I sort of shook my head at the drafted TE's back-to-back but as it was pointed out to me by another person, the Colts lost both Clark and Tamme...and this draft class wasn't deep at this position at all.

The Texans taking Mercilus is good but if their placing so much emphasis on the outside pass rush, why not just re-sign Mario? I know Mario comes at a premium but I think we all know that you need to spend money to make money these days. Would've like to see Houston address more defensive needs than offense too.

Haven't met a single person who isn't sort've baffled by how the Jaguars drafted.
