Bradley Chubb. 3. player. 46. . Defensive End. North Carolina State

The Indianapolis Colts could trade down from this spot, if they got an offer enticing enough to accept. But their defense has been very bad for a very long time, and something tells me that they won’t pass up the opportunity to add another blue-chip player to their front seven. Bradley Chubb fits perfectly with this pick.

No one has to overthink it. This pick simply makes sense. The Indianapolis Colts have been thin on the defensive side of the ball for years, and by adding Chubb, they would reinforce a front seven in desperate need of top-five talent. Chubb can provide that, and more.
