29. Indianapolis Colts- Jaelen Strong, WR, Arizona State

In a draft class that, quite frankly, is rather weak at nearly every position, the pickings are slim for the Colts here when it comes to finding a legitimate first-round talent. Fortunately for Indianapolis, they don’t have a whole lot of major needs, so they can restock at the receiver position with Hakeem Nicks a free agent and Reggie Wayne considering retirement this offseason.

At 6-foot-3 and 212 pounds, Strong is a big, athletic receiver who has reliable hands and is advanced enough as a technician to make plenty of impressive catches in tight spaces. His quickness is questionable and he may not be a viable YAC threat, but the Colts already have T.Y. Hilton to pick up that kind of yardage, so adding Strong as a dependable possession receiver will be good for their offense.
