INDIANAPOLIS COLTS
2008 NFL DRAFT RECAP
|
| It's
always hard to grade a draft when there
is no number one. The Colts dealt away
their No. 1 a year ago and picked OT
Tony Ugoh, who stepped in as a starter.
They needed some LB depth and got it in
third round with Philip Wheeler, who can
run and rush the passer from the edge.
Also got some insurance in C Mike Pollak
as well as picking up Steve Justice
later, obviously creating some
competition. Overall Grade: B- |
