The Indianapolis Colts still have a few holes throughout the roster that could be alleviated with post-draft free-agency help.
The Indianapolis Colts’ offseason program continues to ramp up with rookie minicamp kicking off this upcoming weekend.
While general manager Chris Ballard surprised with a handful of back-against-the-wall splashes early in free agency, as well as the Colts drafting eight players in the NFL Draft, a few holes still remain: starting right guard, starting off-ball linebacker, and third safety.
The Colts exited the draft with a little over $23M in salary cap space to work with, but with draft class contracts...
While it wasn’t spectacular, Colts defensive end Laiatu Latu had a real solid rookie year and could be poised for a breakout sophomore campaign.

I thought Latu was the best pass rusher in the 2024 draft, but we didn’t see his full potential last season. He posted four sacks as a rotational piece in the Colts’ defensive front, which returns Samson Ebukam — who missed all of last season with...
A career that pans out to rival Dallas Clark’s would solidify Tyler Warren as a home-run draft selection.
The expectations surrounding rookie tight end Tyler Warren will likely be unfair, though they simultaneously showcase how high of a floor he offers at the next level.
As most understand at this point, Warren’s talent is the perfect addition to this current Colts offense, but the uncertainty that is Indy’s quarterback room remains the underlying ‘what-if’ scenario that could very well make or break the Colts’ season, and in turn, the passcatchers’ production.
When it comes to tight end production in the...
Go behind the curtain for a glimpse of the process.
The media team for the Indianapolis Colts does some really good work. The videos they produce of game days, highlights, mic’d players, etc. is always top notch. Fans have come to expect a draft journey video, and this year’s didn’t disappoint. Seeing Chris Ballard and his team go through their processes and evaluations which culminated in the NFL draft is must see content. This year’s draft day special is finally out on places like YouTube.
What used to be branded as “With the Next Pick” now falls under the general...
What does the Colts schedule look like in the near future?
Seasons for all major sports are cyclical and hit periods of intense analysis and coverage followed by lulls in which writers, like yours truly, work to find topics and stories to share with the public. It is the nature of the beast. After the season, the Indianapolis Colts entered such a lull, but it was quickly followed by all things draft. Speculation over who would be the top pick for the Colts and even who they would select in each round of the draft filled websites and message boards...
“The production that he’s had the last couple years there has been impressive to watch,” Steichen told reporters. “The vision, the contact balance, the way he runs. He’s a 4.43 guy that can catch the ball out of the backfield, is big for our team as well. So, it’s a good get.”
The Indianapolis Colts found value in adding versatility to their rushing attack and selected Kansas State running back D.J. Giddens in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft with the No. 151 overall pick.
Despite just two seasons as a starter, Giddens emerged as one of the...
E.J. Speed and Joe Flacco played and inked enough in free agency to project the Colts as compensatory pick winners.
Although the NFL Draft has concluded, we now look ahead at next year’s cycle. While way-too-early mock drafts and prospect rankings have already gotten their time thus far, the 2025 free agency cycle has garnered enough to project its compensatory draft picks for next year.
The NFL awards at least 32 additional picks for certain players, coaches, and executives who depart from their previous teams for each draft cycle. As far as this exercise goes, this is merely a projection...
What is your take on the Colts draft?
Draft grades are a curious thing. On one hand, they are like points in “Whose Line is it Anyway”; they don’t matter. On the other hand, fans flock to websites seeking out their favorite team’s grade. Everyone wants their team to have the biggest steal or sleeper of the draft, and we all long for that coveted “A+”. With so many players coming out of college to be drafted, it is nearly impossible for most fans to have enough data on the players to truly know who is of real value, especially...
As expected, after being released by the Colts recently, veteran Matt Gay has landed safely on his kicker’s foot.
According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Washington Commanders have signed former Indianapolis Colts placekicker Matt Gay to a one-year deal, with $4.25 million guaranteed, and worth up to a total of $5 million with extra incentives:
The Commanders are reportedly releasing current kicker Zane Gonzalez in a corresponding roster move.
Of course, the Colts surprisingly released Gay just a few weeks ago, but in a kicker starved league, it was fully expected that the former Pro Bowler would resurface...
The second Tyler Warren declared for the 2025 NFL Draft, the Colts were immediately on the short list of teams that not just wanted—but desperately needed him.
The second Tyler Warren declared for the 2025 NFL draft, the Indianapolis Colts were immediately on the short list of teams that not just wanted—but desperately needed—his talent in their offense.
It’s no secret the Colts were looking to upgrade at tight end. It’s been discussed ad nauseam for the past 365 days or so, and for good reason. The Colts tight end room had two quality blockers, but were essentially non-existent in...
The Colts came out ahead after a home run pick to begin their 2025 draft class!
According to longtime ESPN NFL Draft guru Mel Kiper Jr., the Indianapolis Colts are among the league’s “biggest winners from Round 1” after selecting prized Penn State tight end Tyler Warren with the 14th overall pick:
Indianapolis Colts
The pick: Tyler Warren (No. 14)
I heard teams were trying to trade ahead of the Colts to get one of the top two tight ends. I thought Warren might go to the Jets at No. 7, but they took Armand...
Could be better, could be worse...
According to ESPN longtime NFL Draft guru Mel Kiper Jr. (subscription), the Indianapolis Colts earned a ‘B’ grade from their 2025 draft class—which was highlighted by first round pick and one of this year’s top tight ends Tyler Warren:
Indianapolis Colts: B
Top needs entering the draft: Tight end, guard, center and linebacker
The Colts have to figure out if Anthony Richardson (or even Daniel Jones) is their true franchise quarterback this season. But it’s really hard to do that if the quarterback’s supporting cast isn’t up to snuff....
