Clemson. Shaq Lawson. 18. player. 46. . DE

The Colts were expected to compete for the Super Bowl in 2015. Now, they’re drafting in the middle, and have more questions than answers.

With the available players and positions of need, Indianapolis needs to go best player available, and he is Shaq Lawson from Clemson.

The Tigers’ edge rusher should translate into an outside linebacker for the Colts’ 3-4 system, and a good one he’ll be.

His speed around the edge, combined with the athleticism to follow the run and shoot the gaps, will give their defense a punch they have been missing for quite some time.
