The member in charge of the Colts informed me he will not be able to make his pick. Thus I will pick for them. I am taking Derek Sherrod, the top tackle left on the board. The Colts have the best quarterback on the planet. He is nearing the end of the road. Indy needs to surround him with as much talent as possible, which means upgrading the tackle position.

The last time Bill Polian attempted to do so was taking Tony Ugoh in the second round of the 2007 Draft, who was a Gholston type bust and no longer even on the roster. Manning has done some incredible things these past few years with spotty protection, but it is time for his team to make his life easier.

The Eagles and the Saints are up tomorrow in our mock. If you cannot make your pick on time, please drop me a line to let me know.
