Colts ranked dead last in Pro Football Focus power rankings

The Indianapolis Colts have a lot of holes to address on the roster and with the 2023 NFL draft still to come, Pro Football Focus released their updated power rankings.

Without a stable option at the quarterback position, the Colts are in a limbo of sorts until that move is made. It’s difficult to know exactly what direction they’ll go in, but it’s likely they use the NFL draft to select a quarterback.

In their latest power rankings, the Colts were ranked dead last in the league.

32. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS

• Biggest loss: CB Stephon Gilmore

• Biggest gain: QB Gardner Minshew

The Colts free agency moves were a bit disappointing: They signed a kicker to the largest free-agent contract at the position in NFL history when they have much more pressing issues. They lost key players on defense — cornerback Stephon Gilmore and linebacker Bobby Okereke — but added edge Samson Ebukam. Ebukam was on a talented 49ers defense and will produce for the Colts.

With the Colts’ starting quarterback job up for grabs between Gardner Minshew, Nick Foles and Sam Ehlinger — or maybe someone from the 2023 draft class — it’s not a promising look for the season.

There have been some notable departures on the roster this offseason with Gilmore and Okereke leading the way in that regard. The linebacker position should have a more positive outlook if and when Shaquille Leonard returns to full health after undergoing further surgery to repair a nerve issue in his back.

The cornerback position, however, is a major area of need. The loss of Gilmore results in a major need at the CB1 position, especially with Kenny Moore II and Isaiah Rodgers Sr. both entering contract years.

All of this can change if the Colts hit on the quarterback position during the draft, but even that endeavor could take a year or two.

It’s difficult to know exactly what’s in store for the Colts in 2023, but most of the major outlets aren’t all that bullish for the horseshoe.
