Colts looking to improve pass rush from within

The 2016 NFL Draft was weak at a position that is crucial for the Colts success going forward. The team desperately needs to find a game changing EDGE rusher to put pressure on opposing quarterbacks, but this draft was very light at the position. They had a few opportunities to take one, but there wasn’t a sure thing in this year’s crop of rookies.

The Colts pass rush currently consists of a 35-year old Robert Mathis (featuring a 10-times operated on achilles tendon) and a soon to be 34-year old Trent Cole, who didn’t seem to fit with the defensive scheme last season.
