The Colts spent the first few rounds of the draft bulking up the interior of both the offensive and defensive lines. Then they decided to move onto some skill position players. The first of those players was running back out of N.C. State Nyheim Hines.
Hines was the only pick the Colts made in the fourth round. He was the first skill player taken by Indy. Hines is a speedy back who can make defenders miss with his quick feet. He ran for over 1100 yards and 12 touchdowns during his final year with the Wolfpack.
Part of what attracted Chris Ballard to him is his ability to catch the ball out of the backfield.
