I find that perplexing for a win now team with a 1-2 year window to not use that capital to help win a SB now.

For not having a first round pick, I can't imagine Day 1 having gone better for the Colts. Titans and Texans both burned draft capital to reach for players, only 13 defensive players were taken, and there's a ton of talent left on the board at WR and CB, which means we should see a very high quality EDGE or LB at 47 or in the 50s after a trade back.

And not one player taken after the Jets pick at 16 is even close to having Sauce as our pick
