Alabama center selected with 18th overall pick in Thursday's NFL draft is exactly what Colts needed to help bolster O-line.
When Indianapolis Colts general manager Ryan Grigson met with his scouting staff before Thursday’s NFL draft, he asked each of them to name one player who should be selected with the 18th overall selection.
Alabama center Ryan Kelly, who the Colts had targeted for months, was the predominant choice around the room.
“I said give me one guy and his name was on there more than anybody, so that’s always gratifying, too,” Grigson said an hour after Kelly was chosen.
