The 2020 NFL Draft survived the pandemic, Roger Goodell outlasted his own fatigue by sinking deeper and deeper in to his La-Z-Boy recliner and the Indianapolis Colts furthered their Super Bowl hopes by adding talented, young individuals to their uniform-tweaked roster.
With these new faces, eventually, finding the tarmac at the Indianapolis International Airport, it’s time to find out what they will bring with them—other than carry-on luggage—to the blue and white.
In order to do that, I will be sharing tweets from an account that will be posting video threads of Colts draft selections throughout the off-season—whether that Twitter account is mine or not remains to be seen (follow me @BrownMamba13)—but we’ll start below with Michael Pittman Jr.’s dominant performance against the Utah Utes.

Pittman can adjust to the ball in the air and win above the rim pic.twitter.com/ZUgrT7hN1i
Pittman may not be a speedster but he can track the ball and win downfield #Colts pic.twitter.com/1GZ7NIUdFh

Pittman is a reliable and smart receiver—finding the soft spot in the zone here and making sure he’s beyond the sticks on 3rd down #Colts pic.twitter.com/YcQrh3s7vL

Again, Pittman wins down the field by going up and plucking the ball out of the air for a TD. What a grab! (3rd down again) #Colts pic.twitter.com/71Emwm7AF1

Oh, he run blocks too #Colts pic.twitter.com/jbLrKvSNsd

He wins down the field once more here—despite his lack of elite explosion he can clearly make big plays (3rd down AGAIN) #Colts pic.twitter.com/q2GhkI9MQy

Btw 4 of those catches were on 3rd and long—that’s dependability right there #Colts
