At 85, Colts grab Julian Blackmon, safety out of Utah.

You know Chris Ballard wasn't going to let the entire night go by without adding some defense.

Blackmon says the Colts coaches told him, don’t be surprised if we pick you earlier than people expect

Blackmon tore his ACL in the Pac-12 Championship Game.

Blackmon says he’s 4 months out of surgery, and it’s going well. Stops short of saying he expects to be back in September-October. Depends on how injury responds.

Blackmon was a starter at corner for Utah as a sophomore and junior, then moved to free safety and was a second-team All-American last year.

Blackmon says he felt like safety was a better fit. He asked the Utah coaches to move because the Utes had a lot of guys who could play CB.

Blackmon says the Colts told him they loved him at safety and they thought his transition was seamless.

Ballard says the Colts know that Blackmon might not be able to help them until October, but they really like him because of his versatility and his value. Sounds like Indy likes him as a Swiss Army knife.

....Ballard: "We were worried ...Blackmon... wouldn't be there in the fourth. . . . He's a rangy fast player... He has a lot of value in our defense."
