Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard and head coach Frank Reich entered scramble mode when 2020 starter Philip Rivers announced his retirement. Indianapolis immediately targeted a long-term solution at quarterback, reuniting Reich with Carson Wentz. Some analysts favor the Colts to win their division this year, and another impactful draft class could continue tipping the scale. Ballard hit on most of Indianapolis’s early selections last year, landing starters Julian Blackmon, Michael Pittman Jr., and Jonathan Taylor. However, the Colts have been an every-other-year team under Ballard when it comes to finding gems in the draft. Perhaps this is the year Indianapolis breaks through and produces back-to-back star-studded classes.
