Fancy Combine numbers won’t sway Colts

There are Combine wonders every single year. Players put up flashy numbers and then skyrocket up draft boards. D.K. Metcalf is one name from last season that did that exact thing. In that case, it worked out as he had a great rookie season for the Seahawks.

But for every Metcalf there is a Darrius Heyward-Bey. Receiver is a position that is notorious for teams reaching because of gaudy Combine numbers, namely the 40 yard-dash. Receiver is a position of need this season for the Colts, but don’t expect them to deviate from their plan at all.
