I wouldn't include guys who had very little impact or a negative impact for the Colts as successful draft picks. This would include Campbell, Woods, Brents, Mitchell, Carlies, and Walley.
Also, some of your comments are inaccurate or lacking nuance. For example:
Rock - Part time starter for the Lions (6 games), so a backup there. He basically became a journeyman backup. So not a terrible pick, but didn't live up to where he was drafted.
Speed - Again, a part time starter (9 games for HOU). Good value for a day 3 pick, but not the stud you make him out to be. Also, think I should point out that he tied w/ Franklin for 3rd in the league in missed tackles in '24 before we let him walk.
Latu - Where are you getting that he had 11 sacks this year? I'm seeing 8.5. Which isn't bad, but doesn't live up to where he was drafted. If he keeps improving maybe he'll get there.
