Indianapolis Colts 2018 NFL Draft tracker: What will it take for the Colts to come out on top in the 2018 NFL Draft?

Few teams are set up as well in the 2018 NFL Draft as the Indianapolis Colts after trading back with the New York Jets. Holding five picks in the top-70 Indianapolis hopes that an infusion of young talent coupled with a healthy Andrew Luck will bring them back into the playoff picture.

Despite the Josh McDaniels debacle, the Colts organization appears to have rebounded under the leadership of Frank Reich and Chris Ballard. Indianapolis sits in a terrific spot despite moving back three spots, and could potentially trade back in the first round with another team looking for a quarterback.
