Our staff at A to Z Sports completed a mock draft covering the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft. 

And I had the responsibility of drafting for the Indianapolis Colts. 

So with the 15th pick in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, the Colts select…

Terrion Arnold, CB, Alabama

"The biggest need on the Colts roster is the same today as it was when the season ended and that's their shaky secondary. For most of the season last year, they started two rookie CBs, and just might have two different starting safeties than last season.

I think the top CB in this years class is Alabama's Terrion Arnold. He has the skill, poise, and confidence you want in a top-level corner. He is talented enough to start day one and has true lockdown CB potential that the Colts desperately need."

The Colts choosing not to use free agency to add in their secondary has been beyond shocking, with it being the clear biggest hole on their roster to date. Luckily, they have multiple really strong options to consider in the top few rounds of the 2024 NFL Draft.

My top CB in the class is Terrion Arnold, out of Alabama. He provides the traits and production needed to project him as a starting NFL CB. And I think he has the best shot of any CB in this year's class at developing into a true lockdown CB 1 for an NFL team. It's something that could elevate the Colt's defense from good to great in the blink of an eye.

And from what I have been told, Arnold impressed the Colts during their meeting with the CB at the 2024 Scouting Combine. I was told he showed off his football IQ and overall confidence really well. I think he deserves to be the top CB taken come April, and if he is on the board at 15, I believe he is a strong candidate to be their selection.
