Colts' Draft Priorities: Linebacker, Wide Receiver

0:00On April 4th, the Indianapolis Colts are gearing up for this month's NFL Draft with some big gaps on their roster, especially on defense at Edge. Russia and Linebacker, plus a need for an outside wide receiver on offense. They might even look at safety, though the front office likes their second-year guy Hunter Wooler. Without a first-round pick, they're banking on later rounds to flood these holes after a quiet free agency. They traded away all pro linebackers, Zaire Franklin, to the Green Bay Packers this off-season, and veteran Germain Pratt is still a free agent. They did bring in a Kim Davis Gator from the Arizona Cardinals, but it's not enough to fix the linebacker spot. 49% of Colts fans see Linebacker as the top priority right now, and that makes sense with the losses they've taken. It's a position that could make or break their season if they don't short it up. The good news is, this draft class runs deep at Linebacker, especially on day two, where the Colts hold their second and third-round picks. They're in prime position to snag a talent who could step up big. With the draft just around the corner, Indianapolis has a shot to rebuild and push back toward the playoffs.
