Quote:He is a good player, and it makes a lot of sense for the Colts to re-sign a guy of that caliber.


However, to a certain degree, it makes the first round selection of Phillip Dorsett more puzzling.


His selection makes sense if there was no adequate OL-DL help at that spot in the draft, and the Colts felt like Hilton would be too expensive to retain.


Given the Colts' needs along the lines, and given there were at least two first-second round caliber NTs on the board when the Colts were picking-Malcolm Brown and Eddie Goldman-and given the depth at WR in this draft, the selection didn't make sense.


Furthermore, given he is a slot receiver, too, it would make sense to draft Dorsett if they felt they would have to groom Hilton's replacement to take his position in the next year. But the Colts re-signed Hilton and presumably they felt they would all along.


Why not draft a player at a bigger position of need and take advantage of the WR depth to fill that slot later?
