This year's rookie class could be important to Colts' success

Tribune-Star/Joseph C. Garza Missed me: Indianapolis wide receiver Phillip Dorsett avoids a tackle by Chicago's Kyle Fuller during the Colts' game against the Bears on Aug. 22 in Indianapolis.

That draft brought quarterback Andrew Luck, wide receiver T.Y. Hilton along with tight ends Coby Fleener and Dwayne Allen. Nose tackle Josh Chapman and running back Vick Ballard, who both earned starting jobs with the Colts before being released in recent weeks, were also key members of that draft class.

At one time, Indianapolis had six starters out of 10 total picks. That's a pretty good return on the team's investment.
