I will love to see what our "Fav Five" can do with a full offseason and Training Camp playing alongside each other. They could do rare things together.

Also, throw in Clark, Haeg, a mid/late round rookie and perhaps Boehm as quality depth and we are cooking on oil with the O-Line.

2020 = Castonzo UDFA (age 32)
2021 = Ryan Kelly UDFA (age 28)
2022 = Braden Smith UDFA (age 26), Mark Glowinski UDFA (age 30)
2023 = Quinton Nelson UDFA assuming we used 5th year option in 2022 (age 27)

Realisticly, our line could stay intact for 2020 / 2021 / 2022 but by then, Castonzo will probably need replaced and the team may not be able to re-sign both Smith and Glowinski in the same off season.

Enjoy the ride on O-Line Colts fans; it will hopefully be great for the next couple of years.

Not a big deal but the acronym UDFA usually stands for "undrafted free agent", does it not? Unrestricted free agent is usually UFA.

I have a feeling we could spend a higher pick than many expect on a center or center/guard prospect. Kelly is a top center when he is able to play, but he hasn't completed a single season without missing time with injury. He's the undisputed starter, but injuries like that pile up. If the right player comes along I could see Ballard using a 3rd on the future starting center.
