One of the strongest positions in the 2012 draft is WR, fortunate for the Colts with their deficiencies at the position. Currently, the top three receivers on the Colts roster are Reggie Wayne, Austin Collie, and Blair White. The Colts lack a true #1 receiver, with Wayne on his downside, Collie having a secure spot in the slot, and White being, well, Blair White. So, the Colts will almost certainly will be targeting a potential starting receiver in the first four rounds of the draft. Round three in particular contains several possible targets for the Colts, and so, our round three coverage has focused on such players. Today's profile is no different, this time targeting the hyper-athletic Brian Quick, star wide receiver from Appalachian State University.
Pros:
Elite size and strength, measuring in at 6'4" and 222 lbs.
Has big hands (9 3/4") and the ability to make spectacular catches
