Ranking the top quarterback options for the Colts in 2023

Bryce Young continues to slide down the board

Once at the top of this ranking, Bryce Young's slide continues into April, just before the draft. Young has always been a long shot with the Colts, considering the team sits with the fourth pick. It is widely speculated that the Houston Texans would draft Young at pick No. 2.

But even if he were to fall past two and be available at pick No. 4, should Indy take him? Likely yes, because the top two quarterbacks the Colts will be after won't be there anymore. If Young falls to the fourth pick, both C.J. Stroud and Anthony Richardson have already been selected.

Bryce Young can pinpoint passes down the field as he has the best accuracy in this draft. Is that what the Colts are looking for after watching years of Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck? Or do they just need someone to get the ball down the field for a 50/50 ball where Michael Pittman Jr. and Alec Pierce can win the fight?

Young has competed against the best schools in college football being at one of the top schools in the top conference. But will his size translate to the NFL? Drew Brees is a future Hall-of-Fame quarterback that won a Super Bowl, but he measured at 6-foot-1" at the combine. Bryce Young was 5-10-1/8th" at the combine.

Young could be a great player in the NFL, but will the Colts want him in the draft? Is he good enough to move up and try to secure him as a top-three pick? Probably not.
