COLTS SQUAD SHOW: O-Line OPTIONS | With Depth Concerns, We Look At Some O-Line Prospects for Colts

The Locked On Colts' Colt Squad Show dives deep into the Indianapolis Colts' offensive line depth concerns ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft, emphasizing that while the starting five is solid with Quentin Nelson and Jalen Travis, the team lacks crucial depth—especially at swing tackle and interior line. The hosts argue that drafting two to three offensive linemen in rounds four through seven is essential for long-term success, citing injury risks and the need for development time. They highlight prospects like Jager Burton, Logan Jones, Demetrius Crownover, and Keegan Trost as strong fits. Beyond the line, the show identifies sneaky depth needs at running back, linebacker (especially special teams contributors), cornerback, and slot cornerback. The panel also discusses the possibility of Indianapolis hosting the NFL Draft, praising the city’s event infrastructure and walkability, though noting logistical challenges due to overlapping events like the Combine. Finally, they express concern over the potential return of replacement referees as the NFL’s CBA with the officials’ union nears expiration, calling the current state of officiating a systemic failure rooted in underinvestment by the league.
