Just a disclaimer here, I don’t believe in handing out draft grades so soon, as time and time again it has been proven just how useless it is. A draft class has to be judged after three full seasons, and even then it might be too soon. What we can do is share our initial thoughts on the picks and how we think they might improve the roster and help get the Colts to the playoffs once again.
Laiatu Latu, defensive end, UCLA
Loved the pick, mainly because I have been saying that edge rusher was among the biggest needs the Colts had on the defensive side of the ball, as the pass-rush was just too inconsistent and failed to show up at key times last season.
