The Indianapolis Colts have one of the best interior defensive line duos in the league, but adding depth to both defensive tackle spots is always on the checklist for this regime.
It’s partly why the Colts reportedly have a top-30 visit scheduled with Western Kentucky defensive tackle Brodric Martin, according to Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network.
Along with his prior visits to KC and PHI, Western Kentucky IDL Brodric Martin has Top 30 visits scheduled with the Colts and Chargers, per source.

With DeForest Buckner and Grover Stewart leading the way at the top of the defensive tackle depth chart, the need for depth is there. Martin is projected as a Day 3 pick and profiles mostly as a run-stopper working from the one-technique position.
Though we don’t have his testing numbers, Martin is listed at 6-foot-4 and 334 pounds with 34 3/8-inch arms and a wingspan of 84 1/4 inches.
Martin is known for his strength against the run and ability to set an anchor on early downs even if he may be limited as a pass rusher.
Considering the depth needed behind Stewart at the one-technique position, it wouldn’t be a surprise if Martin’s name was called by the Colts on Day 3 of the draft.
