There are a lot of elite OT's in the draft, but a lot of teams are looking for an OT early and the quality drops off bigtime after the best handful (MtD has 6 1st round graded OTs, 0 2nd and 3rd round graded OTs. Walter Football ranks 4 OTs as top 10 picks)

*=First round grade.
If a 1st round caliber OT falls to them, in the late first it'll will be hard to pass him up. A 1st round rookie OT could start at guard as most Colts OTs do early on, or with a good performance in camp push Diem back to the inside or onto the bench/street.

Mocking the Draft needs to update their rankings
Because they suck right now, frankly. Oher #1, Loadholt #4, and Jason Smith #6 particularly stand out.
it's spliting hairs
all 3 of them are graded as first rounders.
and two of the others have Oher #1

What’s he, a third-fourth rounder?
I’m sure the Colts could nab him and take Boone with their last pick, or just sign him as a free agent.

Boone really struggled this past season, and I’m sure the off-the-field issues won’t help his draft stock, much. He may end up being a 6th to UDFA pick, but I’m not sure he’s worth it at this point. I think the Colts have enough young, inconsistent tackles on their roster.
