Colts Offseason

    With the NFL Draft coming up this spring, I'm going to tell you guys what I think the Colts should do. In this upcoming draft, the Colts will definitely need to draft some offensive linemen because about 75% of their problems could be solved if they had even a sub par offensive line. With Andrew Luck fully healthy next year, if we could just build up a strong front, to block for him, that would be ideal. However, they also are gong to need a running back, so I think they they should draft Ohio State running back, Ezekiel Elliot. He is an explosive runner, extremely fast, and can power through the defense, and go as far as to compare him to Adrian Peterson. The Colts won't be able to do all of their work in the draft, so they will need to get rid of Andre Johnson and possibly Frank Gore. They didn't do a lot of work last year, and they could get over 20 million extra dollars from releasing them. With that money, you could get a few offensive linemen, and a decent cornerback to play across from pro-bowler Vontae Davis. One cornerback that could make a big impact if he stays healthy, would be Prince Amukamara from the New York Giants. He is an outstanding corner when healthy, but he has only completed one full season in the NFL. If they got him and he could stay healthy, the Colts defense could be a force to be reckoned with. The last move they need to make, is to resign Adam Vinateri, and also sign/draft a defensive lineman or two. If they could get Muhammed Wilkerson from the New York Jets or draft a talented defensive lineman, they could put a lot of pressure of opposing quarterbacks.
