Even without a first-rounder in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Indianapolis Colts still came away with a talented class. Here are their grades for each pick.

The Indianapolis Colts started out their 2019 season hot, as they won five of their first seven games and looked primed for a potential playoff spot early on. However, that hot start cooled in a hurry as the Colts went on to lose seven of their final nine contests while having no real identity on either side of the football.

With the Jacoby Brissett experiment now over, the Colts used the 2020 offseason to try and find that identity by bringing in some proven talents from the west coast. They signed longtime Los Angeles Chargers quarterback, Philip Rivers, to a one-year deal and traded their first-round 2020 NFL Draft pick to the San Francisco 49ers for DeForest Buckner.

These two proven veterans should add a spark to both the offense and the defense this season but it was still important for the Indianapolis Colts to land some young talent in the 2020 NFL Draft as well.

Here we are the day after the festivities and I feel they were able to do just that. Colts fans everywhere should feel pretty good about what who they came away with, as they were able to snag several players that should make an immediate impact this season. They focused on addressing needs while keeping value in mind and I thought they had a solid draft all-around.

Here are my grades for each pick the Indianapolis Colts made in the 2020 NFL Draft.
