Colts NFL draft: Every player drafted at 14th overall in last 10 years

USA Today17-04-2025

Colts NFL draft: Every player drafted at 14th overall in last 10 years The Colts hold the 14th overall pick in this year's NFL draft. Here is a look back at the last 10 selections at that draft slot.
The Indianapolis Colts will enter the 2025 NFL draft with seven selections in total, including the 14th overall pick in the first round.
Of course, previous picks at 14th overall by other teams have no bearing on who the Colts pick or how that selection turns out. But it is interesting to see the caliber of players that have come from this specific spot in the NFL draft in recent years.
As it pertains to the Colts, tight end, as we know, is a major need, but the offensive line and the defensive line are two other position groups that could be on GM Chris Ballard's radar--not to mention that adding to linebacker should be on the to-do list as well, although I don't know that ends up as a first round priority for Indianapolis.
Here are the last 10 selections to be taken at 14th overall in the NFL draft.
2024: New Orleans Saints, T - Taliese Fuaga, Oregon State
As a rookie, Fuaga started all 17 regular-season games at left tackle for the Saints.
2023: Pittsburgh Steelers, T – Broderick Jones, Georgia
Jones has started 27 out of 34 regular season games in his two NFL seasons, which includes 16 games this past year.
2022: Baltimore Ravens, S – Kyle Hamilton, Notre Dame
The do-it-all safety has missed just three games in his first three seasons and is a two-time Pro Bowler and a one-time All-Pro.
2021: New York Jets, G – Alijah Vera-Tucker, Southern California
Vera-Tucker has been a versatile member of the Jets' offensive line, playing multiple positions. Unfortunately, injuries have been a part of his career, with Vera-Tucker appearing in only 12 games between 2022 and 2023. However, he did make 15 starts last season.
2020: San Francisco 49ers, DT – Javon Kinlaw, South Carolina
After spending his first four seasons with the 49ers, Kinlaw joined the Jets in 2024. He's appeared in all 34 games the last two seasons and has 9.5 career sacks and 12 tackles for loss.
2019: Atlanta Falcons, G – Chris Lindstrom, Boston College
Lindstrom has been a three-time Pro Bowler in his NFL career. Since 2020, Lindstrom has missed only one game.
2018: New Orleans Saints, DE – Marcus Davenport, UTSA
After spending his first five seasons with the Saints, Davenport was in Minnesota in 2023 and Detroit in 2024, appearing in just six total games during that span. Davenport has 24 career sacks over seven seasons and 27 tackles for loss.
2017: Philadelphia Eagles, DE – Derek Barnett, Tennessee
Barnett has missed time over his career. In four seasons, he's played fewer than eight games. He did, however, appear in 16 games with Houston last season and has won a Super Bowl with Philadelphia. Barnett has 29 career sacks and 49 tackles for loss.
2016: Las Vegas Raiders, DB – Karl Joseph, West Virginia
After four seasons with the Raiders, Joseph played in 14 games in 2020 with Cleveland and then appeared in two games with Pittsburgh in 2021, which was the last time he saw regular-season snaps. Joseph finished his career with 20 pass breakups, five interceptions, and 305 tackles.
2015: Miami Dolphins, WR – DeVante Parker, Louisville
Parker spent seven seasons with Miami and then the 2022 and 2023 seasons with New England. Parker averaged 14.1 yards per catch over his career, catching 59% of his targets, with 27 touchdowns.

Davante Adams Sends Clear Message on Relationship With Rams' Puka Nacua

Davante Adams Sends Clear Message on Relationship With Rams' Puka Nacua originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Los Angeles Rams have retooled quite quickly after they went 5-12 in 2022 just one season after they won the Super Bowl championship. Advertisement They have won 10 games and made the playoffs in each of the last two seasons, and thanks to the addition of wide receiver Davante Adams and a cadre of young studs, they have high hopes for this fall and winter. Adams, a six-time Pro Bowler, could end up being an upgrade over the outgoing Cooper Kupp, and fellow Rams wideout Puka Nacua said that Adams is already having a positive effect on his new team. "The positive impact has already been felt from Davante," Nacua said. Adams, in turn, returned the favor on Instagram. "Special dude," his caption read. Davante Adams, Instagram Adams made his name as a member of the Green Bay Packers from 2014 to 2021 alongside future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers. A second-round draft pick in 2014 out of Fresno State, the Northern California native grew into Rodgers' favorite target within a few years. Advertisement The Packers traded him to the Las Vegas Raiders prior to the 2022 campaign, and although the Raiders weren't successful with him, he continued to produce at a high level. New York Jets wide receiver Davante Adams© Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images Last year, Adams was shipped at midseason to the New York Jets, where he was reunited with Rodgers. Although the Jets went just 5-12, he still managed to catch 85 passes and post 1,063 yards and eight touchdowns. The Rams are hoping that at age 32, he still has plenty left in his tank. Assuming he does, he could turn them into a true dark horse team in an improved NFC and make the race for the conference more interesting.

Stefon Diggs Makes Strong Statement on Monday After Personal Event

Stefon Diggs Makes Strong Statement on Monday After Personal Event originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Lately, during OTAs, star wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been getting himself acclimated to the New England Patriots, his new team for the upcoming season. Advertisement He has looked to build chemistry with promising young quarterback Drake Maye, and he's hoping to bounce back after his 2024 season was cut short by a torn ACL. After the Patriots' OTAs ended last week, they started their mandatory minicamp on Monday. Diggs found some time to hold his annual day camp for kids, and he made a statement about the event on his Instagram account. "Family, Football, and FUN!!!!" he wrote. "This was year 4 of my annual Diggs day camp. It's crazy watching these kids grow up right before our eyes. Thankful for everyone who played a part in the camps success.. let's keep going ❤️❤️❤️❤️" It may be easy to forget after his frustrating and disappointing 2024 season, but before that, Diggs was one of the NFL's very best wideouts. Dec 31, 2023; Orchard Park, New York, USA; Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs (14) is tackled by New England Patriots defensive end Lawrence Guy Konezny-USA TODAY Sports From 2018 to 2023, he posted over 1,000 receiving yards each year, and he was named to the Pro Bowl four straight times from 2020 to 2023. Once the Minnesota Vikings traded him to the Buffalo Bills in 2020, he helped make the Bills into bona fide Super Bowl contenders. Advertisement But there were rumors of a rift between him and the team during his final season in Buffalo, and he was dealt to Houston last offseason. In eight games last season, he posted 47 catches, 496 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He's now a member of a rebuilding New England squad that is looking to get out of the post-Tom Brady wilderness. It will likely miss the playoffs again this winter, but it is hoping Diggs can help guide it back to respectability not too long from now.

Mark Wahlberg Did Not Hesitate to Give His 2025-26 Detroit Lions Prediction

Mark Wahlberg Did Not Hesitate to Give His 2025-26 Detroit Lions Prediction originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Detroit Lions' heart-wrenching playoff loss to Washington earlier this year was hard for many Detroit fans to swallow as they watched the team's Super Bowl hopes go up in smoke. Advertisement The Lions were favored heading into the game despite a rash of injuries on defense that left them exposed against quarterback Jayden Daniels and coach Dan Quinn's team. On Monday, a famous Hollywood actor known for his Lions fandom, Mark Wahlberg, spoke with a Detroit area reporter about the Lions' upcoming chances to repeat as NFC North champions. He also offered a take on who he would play if a movie were made about the lovable Motor City football franchise.

Detroit reporter Brad Galli asked Wahlberg. Advertisement "No, I didn't, but you know, it's a small world," Wahlberg said. "It's like being in a second home. Wish I had more time to spend here and wish I was making another movie here," he added. "The only thing I do feel bad about is, our Lions didn't do what I predicted last year, got close, had an amazing regular season, but big expectations for this definitely going to win the division," Wahlberg added, saying he wants the Lions to go all the way this year while sharing his first person experience of Lions fans crying over their team's difficult loss to the Commanders. He also said that he would be willing to play Dan Campbell in a movie about the Lions, dismissing reservations about his height.
