INDIANAPOLIS — When the 2019 NFL Draft began Thursday night, the Colts had a cluster of eight players they felt comfortable taking with their first-round pick, No. 26 overall.
The fact that Indianapolis ended up trading that pick to Washington for a second-round pick this year — No. 46 — and a second-round pick next year, allowing the Colts to get a head start on accumulating 2020 draft capital, does not mean that the rest of the NFL grabbed those eight players before the Colts went on the clock.
Far from it.
