Nose tackle signed


Good news and bad news. The good news is that the Colts signed Brandon McKinney, a run-stuffing nose tackle from the Ravens. McKinney is a tough big body who can solidly pin two blockers. A quick first step helps him out, but don’t expect any sacks from him unless he falls into one (he had just one pressure in 93 pass rushes last season). Although like most big men he has some conditioning issues, his best games as a Raven were the ones in which he saw the most snaps. He should be able to handle two-down nose tackle duties for the Colts, improving their run defense dramatically.

The bad news is that my mock draft is all screwed up now.
