If the draft was tomorrow, here’s how it would look for the Colts:
Round 1, No. 26
Round 2, No. 34 (from the Jets)
Round 2, No. 59
Round 3, No. 90
Round 4, No. 123
Round 4, No. 129-137 (projected compensatory pick)
Round 5, No. 154
Round 6, No. 187
Round 7, No. 218
The Colts are 3.125% of the league (1 of 32 teams).
They own 4.545% of the top 154 selections (7 of 154 picks) or about 150% more "quality" picks than they should be alloted.
IF some NFL team decides to roll the dice on Jacoby Brissett and offer a high enough pick for Ballard to decide that he can go find a new security blanket, this gets even better.
If Ballard and staff can even do half as well in the 2019 draft as they did in the 2018 draft.... However, I expect him to do nearly as well this year as last because:

Ballard's first draft was with Grigson's scouting staff.
Last season's draft was with HIS scouting staff.
I expect more of last year's results going forward.
The future is so bright, I gotta triple up!
