Early Colts 3-round 2024 NFL mock draft: Which prospects will make Indy a contender?
Indianapolis selects S Javon Bullard with the 79th overall pick

The safety position has been a heavy focus it seems like over the last few years, but do the Colts have their two guys back there? Julian Blackmon shows signs of being an unstoppable machine, but will fall off. Same goes for Rodney Thomas II, and then Nick Cross has all but dissapeared on the defense.
Adding a guy like Javon Bullard bolsters this hard hitting defense and helps protect the deep ball in the secondary.
