Indianapolis Colts - C+ (BTAU/OnTheWarpath58)
2. DT Trevor Laws
3. OLB Geno Hayes
4. DE Jason Jones
5. QB John David Booty
6. WR Kevin Robinson
7. OG Chris McDuffie
I strongly disliked the Colts' first day, but they rectified some of it with a strong second day. The acquisition of Trevor Laws and Geno Hayes was extremely disappointing for a team that incredibly lacks depth at DE and WR, to the point where the Colts had to break with their formula and pick up replacements in free agency last year. To say nothing of the fact that both picks were sorry reaches.
Robinson in the 6th round and Jones in the 4th take steps to solve this oversight from the first day. Robinson has the ceiling to be a playmaker, and behind Harrison, Wayne, and that white rookie guy he should have a season to grow. Jones is a wild card, nobody knows exactly what he's capable of, and a 4th is a good gamble. McDuffie and Booty also address depth needs at the appropriate places, upgrading this Draft from a potential disaster to a mere disappointment.
