Wide Receiver. NC State. Kelvin Harmon. 26. player. 46.

The Indianapolis Colts were a team that many expected to miss out on the playoffs this past season, as quarterback Andrew Luck was coming back from a devastating shoulder injury. In fact, the former Pro Bowler had missed most of the last two seasons with the injury, and many did not know what to expect from him in 2018.

Well, Luck showed in 2018 that he is still one of the better quarterbacks in football, finishing second to only Patrick Mahomes in terms of touchdown passes. He led his Colts to a Wild Card berth, beating the Tennessee Titans in Week 17 to lock up the playoff spot, and then went on to beat the Houston Texans on the road in the Wild Card round.

To say the 2018 season was a success would be an understatement, as not only did Luck return, but he returned to form. The Colts have the most cap space of any team in the NFL, some solid draft picks, and you have to believe they will head into 2019 season as the favorite to win the AFC South.

When it comes to  the roster, Indy could afford to bring in another wide receiver with their first round pick, adding a player to  team with T.Y. Hilton. Kelvin Harmon would be a perfect compliment to Hilton, as he has a completely different body size, and would give the Colts another guy who can not only go over the middle, but go up and make big catches downfield.
