15. Indianapolis Colts

player. 46. The Indianapolis Colts don’t have any young pass rusher of note. They also don’t have anybody with star potential on the roster. Teams don’t win much in those situations. Taco Charlton is a talented, versatile and ascending prospect who can play in any scheme. Such types are hard to find.. DE. Michigan. Taco Charlton . 15

46. Indianapolis Colts

46. player. 46. GM Chris Ballard was a huge advocate of Charles Tillman back when he was with Chicago. So it won’t be surprising that he might like Rasul Douglas. Another big, tough cornerback with tackling prowess and A+ ball skills. Maybe not blazing fast, but attacking him comes with high risk.. CB. West Virginia. Rasul Douglas

80. Indianapolis Colts

David Sharpe . 80. player. 46. Protecting Andrew Luck is vital for the Colts and has been since he was drafted. So don’t be surprised if they invest multiple picks in the offensive line. David Sharpe could be another quality offensive tackle converted to guard where his size and power will be a big help to the ground game.. OG. Florida

121. Indianapolis Colts

Clemson. Wayne Gallman . 121. player. 46. Most of the attention was on the passing game at Clemson that it was easy to miss how balanced their offense was. It wouldn’t have been nearly as effective if not for the productive slashing runs of Wayne Gallman. Maybe not elite physically, he nonetheless has the skills to gash defenses on the ground.. RB

137. Indianapolis Colts

Duke Riley has turned a lot of heads lately with his rapidly improving play out of LSU. His instincts and awareness jump out on tape and he plays an aggressive style that makes him a headache for opponents around the line of scrimmage. The Colts need a youth injection at that position.. LB. LSU. Duke Riley . 137. player. 46

144. Indianapolis Colts

46. Indianapolis made a big statement when they willingly traded Dwayne Allen to the Patriots. An overhaul at tight end is coming. Michael Roberts could be one of those subtle picks who end up being a steal. He’s a decent receiver and inconsistent blocker now, but his ceiling in those areas is huge.. TE. Toledo. Michael Roberts . 144. player

158. Indianapolis Colts

Adam Bisnowaty . 158. player. 46. Injuries hampered Bisnowaty towards the end of his time at Pitt. When healthy he showed he could be a protector on the perimeter with his toughness and technique. He’s also aggressive and nasty as a run blocker. All good traits to have, especially for a team in need of them.. OT. Pitt
