With the #27 pick in the 2009 MHR Community Mock Draft, the Indianapolis Colts select.... DT, EVANDER HOOD, MISSOURI

Indianapolis Colts Round 1, Pick #27 overall GM chikndnnr

Details of the pick after the jump...

Perfect fit.

From GM chikndnnr:  DT is obvious need for this team. The Ole Miss defensive tackle, Jerry, would have been my pick but there's a chance the colts will be better off w/hood anyways. Wide receiver was an option and heyward-bey would have been the one. Assuming the colts are going to continue running the tampa defense, ziggy should be a nice fit as gap penetrator. A poor man's Sapp. I think this is a good pick for the colts, but who really cares- it's the colts.GO BRONCOS!

 Commish's Thoughts:  You can't reall go wrong here.  Hood is ideally suited to a 4-3 defense, and even better suited to Indy's particualr flavor of 4-3.  If you spend any time at all over at Stampede Blue, you know that the Indy fanbase has broken Ziggy down pretty good, and would dig the pick if that is how it turns out.

ON THE CLOCK Philadelphia Eagles (via Carolina Panthers) are up next.  The Eagles already nabbed a nice target for McNabb, in WR Hakeem Nicks, so where will they look with their second pick?? The deadline for this pick is NOON MST, April 10th.  As long as I receive the pick by that time it will be valid.  To send me the pick, just email me at the address shown in my profile.
