Indianapolis Colts: 7-Round 2019 mock draft after NFL Combine

Round 2 (first pick): Kelvin Harmon, WR, NC State

If the Colts are going to use an early-round pick on a wide receiver — which they absolutely should barring an unexpected signing or trade — that prospect has to be capable of being productive immediately opposite of T.Y. Hilton. Enter Kelvin Harmon.

Harmon, at 6-2, 221 pounds, has the skill set to be an X-receiver on a team in any scheme. His ability to beat press coverage with footwork and strong hand usage allows him to find separation early in his release. He’s not the fastest twitch receiver in the draft, but he accelerates well for his size and has the chops to outmatch any defensive back on a jump ball.

A dominant run blocker on the edge as well, Harmon may be the most complete receiver in this draft, and he fits perfectly into what the Colts need at the position. Here’s Harmon describing his own game during an interview at the combine, via ColtsWire:

"“Ultimately, it’s my ball skills and the way I play, my mentality, how I go get the ball,” Harmon told the media at the NFL combine. “Those 50-50 balls are normally 90-10 balls my way and if I don’t catch it, it’s not going to be an interception.”"

Round 2 (second pick): Julian Love, CB, Notre Dame

If the Colts end the second round of the 2019 draft by adding Julian Love in the secondary, consider it a massive win. A strong fit for the zone scheme, Love would blend in well with what the Colts run defensively under Matt Eberflus. While he didn’t blow up the combine, Love is a solid prospect who was very productive in college and more than fills a position of need.

A 5-11, 195-pound corner, Love has drawn comparisons to Jacksonville’s A.J. Bouye. He posted 32 pass breakups and four picks over the last two years for the Irish. While his 40 time of 4.52 seconds raised an eyebrow, I don’t see it affecting him too much in the league.

Pure and simple, Love is a cover guy who possesses the feet, hips, instincts and competitiveness you want in a corner, and would project as an instant starter for the Colts.
