Back to EpisodesColts' Draft Strategy: Defense and Offense
Description
The Indianapolis Colts, without a first-round pick and facing roster holes, particularly on defense, aim to fill gaps in their roster through the 2026 NFL draft. General manager Chris Ballard focuses on later picks to potentially turn things around and chase their first divisional crown since 2014 and playoffs since 2020. The team targets linebacker Anthony Hill Jr. in round two, safety Louis Moore in round three, and edge pressure and depth in later rounds, including Romello Height, Jeff Caldwell, Travis Burke, Cole Wisniewski, and Khalil Jacobs. These selections aim to strengthen defense while adding offensive upside, setting Ballard up for a quiet rebuild and contention if the picks pan out.
