2026 NFL Offseason: Free Agents, Draft Notes, Predictions

(Multiple Contributors)

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...ft-predictions



*********************************



Indianapolis Colts


2025 record: l 8-9

Final FPI Ranking: l No. 21 (Out of 32 Teams)

Estimated 2026 Cap Space: l $36.3 Million

2026 1st-Round Draft Pick: l None (traded to the New York Jets)


What is their top offseason priority ??? ) Resolve their quarterback situation ...... Daniel Jones lit it up in his first season with Indy, but he'll be a free-agent in March, when he'll still be recovering from a torn right Achilles. The Colts seem inclined to run it back with Jones, but they've got to reach a deal and confirm his injury progress.

What is one secondary priority to watch ??? ) Re-tool the defensive line ...... the Colts have stuck with this group for years, but the results have been too intermittent to assume this group returns en-masse. This will be tricky with no 1sst-round pick, but the Colts need more juice on the edge.

Latest on the head coach situation: ) The Colts lost their final 7 games to complete a historic collapse after an 8-2 start ...... but the team's ownership has decided not to make significant changes, with the Colts announcing less than 3 hours after a season-ending loss to the Texans that General Manager Chris Ballard and Head Coach Shane Steichen will return for the 2026 season.

I like Jaelan Phillips, just not his injury history. The Senior Bowl is supposed to be loaded with Edge Rushers. If that turns out to be true, let's get one.

what could go wrong

A blind squirrel finds a nut occasionally, that's my hope.

Well, the hope is, that he has learned from his previous mistakes.
