The Indianapolis Colts have been one of the better drafting teams in the league over the last few seasons, but their class in 2021 earned some mixed reviews.
Chris Ballard started off the draft hot by taking Michigan pass rusher Kwity Paye, but he started to lose his touch as the draft went on.
In addition to neglecting key positions like the offensive line and wide receiver until very late, the Colts made one of the riskier picks in the draft when they picked a second pass rusher in Vanderbilt’s Dayo Odeyingbo in the second round.
