Ryan Grigson has never been above taking risks in a draft if he feels the talent is worth it. By now he has to know the pass rush of the Indianapolis Colts is, at best, inadequate. It’s a big reason why the unit can never seem to show up against the top teams in the league and take proper advantage of the points Andrew Luck can put up. <p>Concerns regarding Noah Spence have nothing to do with ability. Week after week scouts become more confident he’s one of the best pass rushers in the draft and a perfect fit at outside linebacker in the Colts’ 3-4 scheme. The problem is how he got kicked out of Ohio State for failing multiple drug tests. Word is he’s been up front about the problems and they did not recur during his time at Eastern Kentucky.</p>. OLB. Eastern Kentucky. Noah Spence. 18. player. 46
