Indianapolis Colts used offseason to revamp front office, defense

The Indianapolis Colts ended their offseason program on June 15. Here’s a look at how they fared:

Offseason goals/grade: Getting younger, more athletic and more physical on defense was what Chris Ballard was striving for when he took over for general manager Ryan Grigson over the winter. Ballard cleaned house on the Colts' aging, slow defense by releasing or not re-signing unproductive players such as Art Jones, Trent Cole and Patrick Robinson. The Colts signed or drafted 13 defensive players during the offseason and they could end up having as many as seven new starters on that unit next season.
