Setting Realistic Expectations for Each Indianapolis Colts Rookie

Rookies represent the best and worst about the NFL's offseason hope, and for the Indianapolis Colts, that's no different.

The Colts have relied on rookies for much of the Andrew Luck era, with good and bad results.

The reliance on Luck and the 2012 class has resulted in one of the most talented offenses in the NFL, with Luck, T.Y. Hilton and a pair of talented tight ends leading the way. A poor 2013 class led to a decaying pass rush and a still-in-shambles offensive line. The team hopes that encouraging seasons from Jack Mewhort and Jonathan Newsome in 2014 can help reverse that trend going forward.
