DT. Alabama. A'Shawn Robinson. 18. player. 46.

The Colts are in a position where they can basically take the best player available and improve their roster instantly.

A’Shawn Robinson from Alabama is a true 3-4 nose tackle who can give Indianapolis a run stopper up front and demand double teams, which open up lanes for their linebackers to blitz and shoot through.

He immediately makes the defense better and has a rare pass rushing ability from over the center which is a threat in itself.

Without any of the draft’s top offensive linemen still on the board, taking the drafts best nose tackle is the best thing for the Colts to do here.

Previously:  Reggie Ragland – LB – Alabama

Next: 19. Buffalo Bills
