Colts owner Jim Irsay hinted at who he wants in the 2024 NFL Draft

"It's the start of a great year with AR back and Taylor set to go witha full mindset at training camp. If Chris can just figure out how to get Marvin Harrison Jr. here, we'll be set." - Colts Owner Jim Irsay 

Ohio State WR Marvin Harrison Jr. is projected to be the highest-drafted non-QB in the 2024 NFL Draft. And with the Colts slated at pick 15 in round one, that won't get the job done.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport named the Colts a team that could trade up for a WR, but it would take quite the swing for them to have a shot at Harrison Jr. They would likely have to trade into the top five, which would almost certainly cost them a future first and more. 

Harrison Jr. being the top prospect Irsay covets isn't all that surprising, with his father being Colts legend Marvin Harrison. Now, whether Irsay is just joking around with that comment is for you to decide.

Either way, this comment from Irsay makes me feel even better about my takeaways from Chris Ballard's media availability at the Scouting Combine. A big one is that I believe the Colts are targeting a top pass catcher with their first-round pick of the 2024 NFL Draft.
