While Nick Sirianni leaving his offensive coordinator position for the Philadelphia Eagles HC job and Philip Rivers deciding to retire will undoubtedly leave a huge hole in the foundation of the Indianapolis Colts, losing left tackle Anthony Castonzo after he hung up his cleats might throw the entire draft strategy for Chris Ballard out of the window as he tries to find a replacement.
While Oregon’s Penei Sewell will be a lock for the top five, and Northwestern’s Rashawn Slater will likely not be available by the time Indianapolis makes their selection, their prayers for a franchise left tackle could be answered if they take Virginia Tech’s Christian Darrisaw, who looks like a Day 1 starter in this league.
