Colts fourth-rounder, LB Bryce Boettcher (Oregon), had 131 tackles last season which was the most among all power conference players.

Boettcher has a really good feel in coverage and good eyes overall.

Absolutely hate him against the run, but likely a special teamer/sub-package guy

Bryce Boettcher's production profile is pretty good and I'd argue that he was the best true coverage linebacker left on the board (Kyle Louis is a safety and Aiden Fisher can't really run).

Wish his run defense inspired me more, but he is a fine backup behind Akeem Davis-Gaither

I had a low 4th round grade on Boettcher, so decent value there I guess

If you want to be sold on Bryce Boettcher, go watch him against Oregon State.

Oregon State couldn't get a lineman near him at the second level, so he looked like Brian Urlacher in that one lol.

Interesting note of Colts R4 LB Bryce Boettcher.

Named Burlsworth Trophy winner after walking on at Oregon.

The Burlsworth award is in memory of Brandon Burlsworth, former walk-on at Arkansas and Colts' 1999 3rd round pick who died in car accident after rookie minicamp.
