Rumors have started swirling that the Colts have had trade talks involving Malik Hooker and while they aren’t openly shopping him, with some hesitation on picking up his fifth-year option, the Colts could look to move Hooker for more draft picks. But at this point, it is more speculation than it is a reality.

With a big run on offensive tackles, six to be exact, that lead to a slide for the safety group, and arguably the best safety in this 2020 class will be available for the Colts at 34 in McKinney. A projected mid-first round pick, McKinney would fill a somewhat need for the Colts as they don’t have a long-term answer at safety alongside Khari Willis yet.
