The Colts draft at #21. There are no OT's listed between 17 and 27.

Darrisaw could be there. If Darrisaw is already picked, and the Colts select a OT at #21, the Colts will likely be drafting for need and not BPA. The Colts could potentially trade back a few spots and still pick up one of the next group of OT's in the late 20's - early 30's.

Of course, the draft board order will change 20 times between now and draft day.

I really like Some of the edge guys and CB’s that could be available But the talking heads think Ballard is going all in for FA pass rush this yr.

I think that also. It’s a really good FA edge class. Plus all the teams over the cap. Even with Wentz we still have like 50 million plus. He could draft more edge, but I think we just do more waiting with a rookie. I can see him drafting Cb though. I think we go FA WR also.

Agree. OT and CB with the first two picks, whether he moves down or not. Then he'll add another WR and DE in there somewhere. Maybe even a safety to be #4 behind Odum.

If they go edge at 21 or in a trade down, I'm partial to Azeez Ojulari. Elite traits, displays good technique already, production in the SEC, and his first NFL season will be his age 21 season. If they didn't need a LT so badly, he'd be unquestionably the guy I'd want the Colts to draft.

I like him also, but I wonder if he is too light for what they want. I bet he is pushing 230

That’s pretty subjective. Lists will range all over the place with this group. For example after the top two options will start to differ.

I do know it’s a position you shouldn’t get cute with. Just draft the best one you can. Hopefully you get a guy who can fill the position for ten years+.
