In hindsight, of course Jonathan Taylor should’ve gone earlier than the 41. It would’ve been nice if Jacob Eason looked so good that he could’ve taken over for Phil Rivers, but without a first rounder, the Colts got a franchise back in Taylor, a decent receiver in Michael Pittman, and have a potential safety in Julian Blackman. But now …

The Colts have two of the first 54 picks, and then everything else is in the fourth round and beyond – so it’s a two player draft. The Colts have to get a pass rushing defensive end, and several should be there at the 21. They also need help at offensive tackle, and several should be there at the 54. Or …

Package the picks. Every GM thinks he can find value in the later rounds, but getting anything beyond a special teamer or anyone who can be a meaningful part of the depth chart is dumb luck. There’s just enough capital to come up with something to move up a few spots – maybe even turn that fourth into a third – and add a little more to this class.
