The Indianapolis Colts used both Day 2 picks to add much needed depth to its revamped defensive unit and drafted Minnesota cornerback Justin Walley with the No. 80 overall pick in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft.

The most intriguing traits Walley brings to Indianapolis are experience as a four-year starter for the Gophers, along with outstanding ball production. Walley played 1,393 coverage snaps across the last four seasons, according to Pro Football Focus. The 5-foot-10, 190-pound defensive back is an exceptional playmaker for Colts new defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo to develop behind proven veterans.
