The Indianapolis Colts are just three weeks away from the start of the 2022 NFL draft and will be tidying up their big board in the meantime.
How the Colts will go about this draft is a mystery. We can take our best-educated guess based on their needs and historical selections. But what happens in the draft is always a crapshoot.
While we took a look earlier at what a mock draft might look like if the Colts passed on a quarterback following the Matt Ryan trade, it’s now time to take a look at what that draft haul might look like if they found a quarterback prospect they really like and are willing to move up for him.
Going “all-in” doesn’t mean trading everything to get into the top-10 of the draft. That’s likely unrealistic because it will be extremely difficult for the Colts to pull off that kind of blockbuster all the way back from No. 42 overall.
Using Pro Football Focus’ draft simulator, we moved up to the late first round to get a potential franchise quarterback while trying to stay as close to a realistic Chris Ballard draft as we could.
Let’s get into it.
