    The quarterbacks were there at No. 14, did IndyStar's Colts Insiders get spicy? IndyStar's Colts' Insiders believe this simulated draft fell perfectly, do you agree?

    I have a strong feeling one of Warren, Loveland, Taylor, Goedert and Mayer will be the Colts' TE1 soon. This draft is the franchise's chance to remove any remaining potential excuses and to set this year up to be the make-or-break referendum on Richardson's processes it badly needs it to be. Why Carson Schwesinger, not Jihaad Campbell, is the ideal linebacker for the Colts1. We are finally here. We can be done with mock drafts and speculation and leaks and lying season.

    Everybody knows what the Colts need and GM Chris Ballard didn't try to hide it MondayCan the Colts find what they've been missing since Jack Doyle retired in the draft? Brock Bowers went two picks before the Colts last year, will Ballard trade up to get his man this year? INDIANAPOLIS -- Everyone seems to know what the Colts need most on offense entering this year's NFL Draft, and the general manager isn't trying to hide it either.

    INDIANAPOLIS -- The Colts have an opening for a starting weak-side linebacker this offseason, and second-year player Jaylon Carlies figures to have a shot for at least some playing time in it. That is, once he recovers from an offseason surgery. Last year's fifth-round pick out of Missouri underwent a shoulder surgery that should keep him out of most of the offseason program, which starts up April 22.

Does a Colts trade up for Penn State TE Tyler Warren make sense? Where do they need to go? What could it cost? I explored this idea with Mel Kiper, who might be Warren's biggest fan: https://t.co/KYgihRqaOe
