Colts trade down and still are able to add to the WR room. Coach Reggie will be pleased.

Alec Pierce: big vertical target, red zone monster. Like that pick.

And the Colts biggest immediate need gets some attention.

Size + speed from Pierce, along with some toughness, given his defensive background.

So after all the discussions, the Colts do indeed address a glaring need: Ballard goes wide receiver with his second-rounder.

Pierce fits the mold (6-3, 211), is a former track athlete and should compete immediately for snaps.
