The Indianapolis Colts are in a pretty decent spot heading into the 2024 NFL Draft. They have seven total picks, including the 15th overall pick in the first round, and several important areas of need that they should aim to address.

But, while the Colts could use some added draft depth at some key positions, they're pretty well set at a few others, at least for next season. Here's a look at three positions that the Colts don't need to prioritize in the upcoming NFL Draft.

Center

The Colts are set at center, as they have one of the best in the game in Ryan Kelly coming back for his ninth season in Indianapolis. Kelly, an All-Pro selection in 2020, is coming off of his fourth career Pro Bowl selection, so he's clearly still at, or at least near, the peak of his powers.

Kelly is durable, as he's started in at least 14 games in each of the past five seasons. Behind him, the Colts also have Wesley French, who started the three games that Kelly missed last season. Guard Danny Pinter could also slide over to the center spot in a pinch if needed, so center appears to be a position that the Colts don't necessarily need to focus on.
