Colts ‘Big Board’ for the first round and other draft prospects of interest

Draft day is officially upon us, so what exactly may the Colts be thinking at #15, earlier, later, or even beyond?

Draft day has finally arrived! While the Indianapolis Colts could go in a variety of directions, most NFL insiders believe they will first hunt for a cornerback or an offensive skill player—they currently have the 15th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

The Colts are one of the clubs that have recently been rumored to be aggressively trading up, but who their desired target is remains unknown.

Without further ado, here is my shortened ‘Colts First Round Big Board’—followed by prospects outside the first round whom I believe they will be interested in (*the latter by position, not draft priority):
