Indianapolis Colts draft picks 2023: Round-by-round selections

Here is a 2023 NFL draft pick-by-pick breakdown for the Indianapolis Colts:

Round 1 (No. 4 overall) — Anthony Richardson, QB, Florida: The self-styled “Cam Jackson” blew up the combine as a bit of a Cam Newton-Lamar Jackson hybrid. At 6-4, 244 pounds, Richardson blazed a 4.43-second 40-yard dash and hit combined quarterback records with a vertical jump of 40½ inches and a broad jump of 10 feet, 9 inches. So although he’s lacking in experience (13 starts for the Gators), Richardson’s physical tools – to include a bazooka of an arm – make him a very early selection. He’s quite a departure from the pocket passers Indy has largely been reliant on in recent seasons, but the Colts’ options were instantly limited after the Panthers jumped them and Houston plucked Stroud.
