Other than Malik Hooker, I didn't think there was a "wow" factor to the Colts' draft. They accomplished what they set out to do -- fortify their roster with future starters. CB Quincy Wilson adds physicality and size on the outside while CB Nate Hairston might have even greater upside. DT Grover Stewart is taking a big step forward in competition, but he has dominant tape. It's entirely believable that the Colts landed eight future starters with their draft.

Hooker and Wilson will be day one starters barring injury.
Basham, Mack and Walker could probably see on fields reps from day one in rotation work.
Banner, Stewart and Hariston are probably not ready for prime time this season but I said that about Haeg last year too. What do I know?
The more that I learn about this kids, the more that I like this draft class.
Cheers,
