Team Award Predictions: Indianapolis Colts
The Indianapolis Colts are now entering year-four of the Chris Ballard era. Ballard has built this team the correct way, all starting in the trenches. With the trade of their first-round pick to the San Fransico 49ers for DeForest Buckner, they now own a very talented group of pass rushers — something they haven’t been the best at. The team started last season off at 5-2 but ended the season with a 7-9 record — well was short of the playoffs after making it to the Divisional Round in 2018. They dealt with plenty of injuries and personnel change in a quick time but now with what should be the most complete roster they’ve had in a very long time. Let’s make some predictions about what should be a playoff-contending team.

Colts general manager Chris Ballard has made a series of moves and signing he normally doesn’t make this offseason. He addressed one of the biggest needs on the roster after trading their first-round pick for Pro Bowl defensive lineman DeForest Buckner. He also decided it was time to take the keys of the offense away from Jacoby Brissett and give them to Philip Rivers after they signed the veteran quarterback to a one-year deal. The team also decided to release Pierre Desir and replace him with long time Vikings cornerback Xavier Rhodes. All in all, the Colts have addressed a lot of their needs during the free agency period. Now, they shift their focus to the NFL Draft where they have seven total picks, after trading their first-round selection.
