Colts take center Javon Patterson with final pick

Javon Patterson was the final pick for the Colts in the 2019 draft. He was picked after the Colts traded Hassan Ridgway for the 246th overall pick. It was a significant move for the team to make for a seventh round draft pick that is towards the bottom of the round.

Ridgeway was a player who always showed flashes of good play, but could never put it together on a consistent basis. It was frustrating to watch. Clearly, the Colts were tired of watching that, so they shipped him off in exchange for a 7th round pick.

As far as that pick is concerned, Patterson increases the depth along the offensive line.
