Indianapolis Colts Draft: Best Available Day 2 Fits

Jonah Savaiinaea, IOL, Arizona

Savaiinaea is the Colts' type of offensive lineman. He is a massive former offensive tackle who tested out of this world this offseason. He may need a little bit of work to adjust to the interior, but he has the traits and the ability that the Colts look for at the position.

Miles Frazier, IOL, LSU

Frazier is a sneaky day two player to watch for the Colts. He is a former offensive tackle who transitioned inside with LSU to close out his career. He possesses long arms, good athleticism, and developed technique that could lead to him playing right away. Keep an eye on him in particular once round three rolls around.

Damien Martinez, RB, Miami

Martinez is the exact mold of running back the Colts are looking for. He is a smooth mover with excellent eyes and the tendency to make defenders miss in the open field. Similarly to Warren, Martinez is an enforcer who would add some pop to the offense. He's also a reliable pass blocker who could play on third downs immediately.

Joshua Farmer, DT, Florida State

Farmer is a bit of a project on the interior, but he has the traits and the size that the Colts are looking for. My understanding is that the NFL is much higher on him than most in draft media, so the Colts may have to use their 45th overall pick to snag this talented defender.

Alfred Collins, DT, Texas

Collins is a prospect who built up some steam throughout the draft process, and the Colts even had him in on a 30 visit. He is built like an NFL nose tackle with powerful arms and an athletic frame. He needs to work on his pad level, but he is a fun potential Grover Stewart backup to be had on day two.

Landon Jackson, DE, Arkansas

Jackson is a massive defensive end with high-end explosive scores who produced in the SEC. The Colts just lost Dayo Odeyingbo in free agency, so a player like Jackson could fill the void as an interior rusher on pass rushing downs. He also has the upside to be a long-term solution at strong side defensive end.

Bradyn Swinson, DE, LSU

Swinson is a productive defensive end who carried the LSU defense this past season. He is one of the best pure pass rushers in this class, and he would provide an immediate spark to the Colts defense in a rotation this upcoming season. The Colts are apparently very high on him and could even consider him in round two if they move back.

Ashton Gillotte, DE, Louisville

Gillotte is an under-the-radar pass rusher who put together some outstanding workout numbers this offseason. He is a relentless pass rusher with some power in his game, and he could be an intriguing late day-two selection for a team like the Colts.

Carson Schwesinger, LB, UCLA

The dream pick for day two is Schwesinger. He is an outstanding coverage linebacker who fits Lou Anarumo's scheme perfectly. The only fear is if he makes it to the Colts at 45. If he's on the board, the Colts should run the card in and lock in a playmaker next to Zaire Franklin.

Smael Mondon Jr., LB, Georgia

If Schwesinger is off the board, a player like Mondon makes a ton of sense in round three for the team. He plays more like a big safety at linebacker with great coverage feel and closing speed in space. He'd be another fun addition to the room in this draft.
