Top 10 Targets for the Colts

Indianapolis needs to look at the future of their team. Rivers is not getting any younger and the Colts are second-guessing Brissett. They are rumored to love Jordan Love and I have also heard talks that Jacob Eason is moving up teams draft boards. This is the perfect time for the Colts to draft a quarterback and have Brissett and Rivers groom him for the future.

I sat here thinking, what Indianapolis were able to get Jalen Reagor. Indy could be the next Kansas City Chiefs, they will have one of the fastest teams in the entire NFL. Justin Jefferson will be the safest pick for the Colts, if he is still there on the board at 34th overall. I have heard buzz they Jefferson might go in the top 20 if the Colts want him, trade up. Brandon Aiyuk and Laviska Shenault are very talented players but they both have the injury concern. Both of them had surgery this offseason, this could make them fall in this draft. The Colts can snag one of them and add them to their receiver core.

If Indianapolis would rather go with edge rusher than interior, they should really take a close look at Curtis Weaver and Julian Okwara. Okwara has first-round traits, just the injury concern with him and Weaver did not play against very good talent which could you keep from him until the middle to late second round.

If Indy would rather go with interior, they should look at Ross Blacklock and Neville Gallimore. Both have first-round traits but both are still a bit raw, you are banking on the upside with both. Having Buckner that could help the development with either one of them could make you swing more to interior than edge rusher.
