No. 75 | Matt Peart | OT | Connecticut

The Colts are going to have Anthony Castonzo holding down the left tackle position for the next two seasons but finding his replacement will be necessary soon. Peart needs some work with his consistency in pass sets, but he’s a wonderful prospect to grab in the third round as Castonzo’s eventual successor.

Peart brings athleticism, elite length and a mauler attitude while moving people in the run game with consistency. Peart has to clean up some of his technique with his pass sets, but he fits the Colts perfectly and as a third-round pick would be perfect to develop behind Castonzo.

The Colts need to add depth and future talent to the offensive line room, and Peart should be one of their top targets.
