15. Indianapolis Colts

player. 46. Chris Ballard built his legacy as a scout and executive around great defenses. It was true during his time in Chicago and again in Kansas City. He knows he has a star quarterback. Often the quickest way to making the team a contender is by giving him a defense to lean on. Something Andrew Luck has rarely had, if ever during his time in Indianapolis. So the Colts set about acquiring the absolute best talent they can find on that side of the ball. <p>The question with Haason Reddick isn’t what can he do? It’s what can’t he do? That at least is the impression people are getting after the Temple defensive end lit up both the Senior Bowl and the scouting combine. It looks like he has a bright future in the NFL as a linebacker, regardless of it’s inside or outside. His athleticism, instincts and tenacity are evident on every single snap. The guy just flies to the football and makes plays. Exactly what the Colts need more of.</p>. DE. Temple. Haason Reddick . 15
