Grigson Discusses Upcoming NFL Draft

Last updated on Thursday, April 21, 2016

(INDIANAPOLIS, IN) - With the NFL Draft a little over a week away Colts General Manager Ryan Grigson met with the media to discuss the team’s off-season and previewed the Colts’ approach to the draft.

"I feel like we truly need to have some patience now because we don't have the resources to plug and play. When you only have six picks, when you have limited resources, meaning not having an abundance of picks, you don't have an abundance of cash, you've got to really knock this draft out of the park."

Grigson also said you have to trust the process of the draft and the scouts that do all the research ahead of time.

"I think it's weak, no matter what your needs are, to look at your board and see Player A here and then you have Player B, C, and D down here and you're going to go, 'Well, we have to get a need and do that.' That defies the whole process. I think it breaks the trust and the morale of your scouts and all the guys that spent all that time stacking your board with you and all the coaches that went and worked the guys out and went through an exhaustive process."

The NFL Draft starts April 28 in Chicago.
