Main takeaway from Colts draft: they want a defense that is more multiple. More athletic LBs, more ability to press on boundary. That doesn't mean they're going man, but they want ability to play more man on outside and press situationally. Didn't really have that last year.

Also when I asked if it was crazy to suggest Colts might look to upgrade over Walker after the KC game, well, I think they're trying to.

Apparently not. I like it he looks kind of like the MLB version of Leonard who is reportedly good in coverage, which was not our LBs strength. I like Walker and can see him still having a place here, but this is a solid upgrade I think.

It looks like the Colts are going to get much more interesting on D, Okereke looks to be a much more Athletic MLB who can cover TEs and if what Banogu says is true he will be all over the place. Walker maybe shifts to SLB/MLB on run downs. This could be an exciting D. I am still a bit concerned about Saftey unless Geathers can stay healthy, hope to see at least depth pick tomorrow.

Maybe a FA pickup is in the future? Eric Berry is a free agent.

Could well be, I have little doubt Ballard is going to do something in regards to Saftey.
