There could easily be a mini run on edge rushers towards the end of Round 1 in the NFL Draft, which puts the Indianapolis Colts into a great position to grab Syracuse EDGE Alton Robinson right behind Julian Okwara.

There isn’t much of a difference between the two, aside from the fact Robinson is a big bigger and stronger, albeit at the expense of having a lack of pass-rushing moves.

That said, the Colts have done an excellent job bulking up their defense in recent years. Finding some additional pass-rushing help would go a long way in making Indianapolis one of the more complete teams in the league heading into 2020.

General manager Chris Ballard has done tremendous work with the Colts, and finding a player like Robinson this late on day one would be an excellent way to continue this trend.
