Colts Pick Alabama Center Ryan Kelly In NFL Draft

Last updated on Friday, April 29, 2016

(CHICAGO, IL) - The Colts bolstered their offensive line by selecting Alabama center Ryan Kelly with the No. 18 pick of the NFL Draft.

The 6 foot 4 inch 311 pounder was an honorable mention All-SEC player as a junior and as a senior he was a first-team all-conference selection who can play at all three interior offensive line positions.

"I think you can look at Jeff Saturday and Peyton Manning and see that those guys made each other better and that's what I want with Andrew Luck. I've learned to appreciate the quarterback/center relationship and I want nothing more than to contribute to this team, to make it better and build a relationship with Andrew Luck," the newest member of the Colts said in an interview with the team's website.

The Colts have two picks in Friday's second and third rounds of the draft. They'll have the 48th and 82nd overall picks.
