I am giddy about that.  Reading the Colts board, they are less than giddy about that.

They have talked about bringing in Villanueva or Eric Fisher. 

That said, the rest of their OL is rock solid, so it won't be too bad for them.

I was shocked they didn't use a high pick on an OT. They have talked seriously about the idea of moving Quenton Nelson to OT. That would be interesting. They seem to think he can make the move.

I was too.  I like Kwity Paye, but when Darrisaw was there, I thought it was a no brainer for them.  I'm thinking they didn't like his run blocking considering how good the rest of their OL is in run blocking.

I think Nelson could perform decently at LT, but he's far better inside.  Their OL would be worse switching him to LT.

But if they don't bring in anyone else, either LT or LG (id Nelson is moved) is going to be a problem for them.  But I don't see anyone they could bring in at this stage that would be much of a help.  Villanueva is experienced but finished, as I fear is Solder.  Fisher tore his Achilles in late January.  There's no telling when he'll be ready to go or if he'll be anywhere what he was before the injury once he is ready to return.
