Colts draft OT Jalen Travis - Round 4, Pick 127

The Colts selected Iowa State OT Jalen Travis with the No. 127 pick. Massive guy: 6-8, 339 pounds. He has a 9.08 RAS.

Looks like he’ll be a swing tackle for Indy and obviously adds depth. Makes me think the team could kick Matt Goncalves inside to guard.

Travis is an interesting guy.

Absolutely massive at 6-8, 339 pounds, with 34 7/8-inch arms. Played his first four seasons at Princeton.

A cousin of former Colts tight end Ross Travis.

Jalen Travis: Super athletic player with G-T flexibility.

Princeton graduate that has won multiple awards for his off-field work in the community.

Very smart player, great culture fit, and has the traits as well.

Easily worth a day three selection

He was with the Colts for 3 years though. However, he tore his ACL and was injured for a good chunk of time.

6’8” 340.

That is one MASSIVE individual.

Talk about a toilet clogger.

I have my doubts about this pick. dude is just huge

but I don't hate it. I love taking swings at OT. I don't see him ever playing guard

If the Colts would have passed on him, I don't think he would have had to wait much longer for his name to be called.

Many Eagles reporters and fans thought that Philly was targeting him at Pick 130...once the Colts selected him at 127, Philly traded out of Pick 130.

This pick is very intriguing, for as massive as he is, it looks like he has the footwork to be able to stay in between fast RDE's, and the QB.

Hopefully this season's training camp will have battles that really refine down to a solid 10 man OL depth, but I know C, and RG are currently unknown.

Apparently this dude didn't give up a sack last season and has super long arms to go with that massive frame.
