Colts Free Agency: Filling Gaps for a Win-Now Season
The Colts have secured key players like Daniel Jones and Alec Pierce, but their roster still lacks crucial elements to compete. The edge rusher position remains a significant concern, with no consistent pressure on quarterbacks. While depth is available, high-end talent is missing, particularly with DeForest Buckner inside.
The off-ball linebacker spot is another glaring hole, with Zaire Franklins potential departure leaving a void. Wide receiver depth beyond Pierce and Josh Downs is uncertain if Michael Pittman Junior is not available.
With only second and third-round picks in the draft, free agency must address at least one major need. Safety, offensive line depth, and running back depth round out the list, but these feel less urgent.
In win-now mode, the Colts cannot afford to start the season with these gaps, as one weak spot could jeopardize their entire push.
