After finishing at 7-9 on the season, the Indianapolis Colts will be selecting 13th overall in this incoming NFL draft. The Colts have plenty of needs all throughout the roster.
Those needs more specifically sit at quarterback, wide receiver and interior defensive line. Luckily for Indianapolis, this draft is fairly deep at those positions.
Here are some prospects that could be available when the Colts are on the clock at 13:
Justin Herbert | QB | Oregon
Some draft experts have this Oregon QB going in the top-seven and some have him landing at 13 with the Colts. Herbert came back for his senior season at Oregon where he would lead the Ducks to the Rose Bowl and while he didn’t throw a touchdown in the game, he showed what a threat he was as a runner, running for three touchdowns.
Herbert has what the NFL is looking for in terms of size, mobility, and arm talent. The ball really jumps off his hands and he’s capable of making every throw. In the film you can tell his comfort is lacking when his first read isn’t available. Herbert will often lock-in on his first read and is too slow to keep working his progression. A lot of young college quarterbacks coming out struggle with progression, so it would be up to the Colts to develop him in that aspect.
