Colts Land Stribling, Ramsey in NFL Mock Draft

On April 4th, Chad Reuter from NFL.com dropped a 5-round mock draft for the 2026 NFL Draft

and the Indianapolis Colts landed some intriguing picks starting in Round 2.

They grabbed wide receiver Dejan Stribbling from Ole Miss at Pick 47, a big-body guy who shines

after the catch and blocks well in the run. Game. Then at 78, it's safety Kamari Ramsey from USC,

a versatile defender who locked down passes with just 8.4 yards allowed per. Catch.

This mock comes as the Colts eye depth at receiver, despite other needs like Edge and Linebacker,

where guys like Malachi Lawrence were still on the first board. Stribbling could push for

WR-3 right away, fitting Chris Ballard's mold perfectly. Ramsey adds to a safety room with

recent free agent as like Jonathan Owens, but he might bring the stability next to Kam

Bottom that they're craving. Fans and analysts see mixed value here. Stribbling boosts an

offense needing playmakers, while Ramsey fits a secondary that's solid but not locked down.

The picks address real gaps without overhauling the roster, especially with young talent already

bubbling up. Deeper in, Round 4 at Pick 113 brings Linebacker Josiah Trotter from Missouri,

a PFF darling in run defense with Blitz upside ready to. Start day 1. Then at 156,

Edge rusher Caden Curry from Ohio State, who exploded for 46 pressures and 12 sacks last year,

raising the floor. Opposite, Layatu, Latu. Overall, Reuter hands the Colts AB plus grade for smart

value and competition boosters, setting them up solid if these prospects pan out in the next.

Couple years.
