Colts take Bobby Okereke with 89th overall pick
The Colts decided to take another linebacker to round out their night, taking Bobby Okereke with the 89th overall pick.
Bobby Okereke was the Colts’ third round pick and the 89th pick overall. He was the second linebacker that the Colts took on Friday night. Okereke is more of a complete linebacker though, as he can stop the run and also drop back into coverage.
The Colts decided to go super heavy defensively at the beginning of their draft, having three of their first four picks go towards that side of the ball. It is a curious drat strategy, but the Colts don’t have too many holes. It makes sense to improve a unit that was only top 15 a season ago.
