The Colts came out of the draft sending some strong signs that things are changing in the AFC South. No longer can they just roll to division titles any longer, and their draft choices are giving some insight. Picking a running back in the first round will do a few things: push Joseph Addai after an average year, and if Donald Brown is indeed a game-breaker type, take some pressure off Peyton Manning and the passing game.

Good to see another receiver chosen, but I thought they would go with a speed receiver to help on the edges. Austin Collie is more of a possession wideout, so we’ll see how that goes. They also grabbed a pair of big, bulky defensive tackles to help stop the bleeding against the run. If you’ve noticed, officials are not calling offensive holding penalties as much anymore, which hurts speed rushers like Robert Mathis and Dwight Freeney.
