The Colts did the Patriots a kindness late Thursday night, inexplicably passing on Texas defensive tackle Malcom Brown and ignoring their futility against the run to add another wide receiver, Miami's Phillip Dorsett.
That's one favor, redeemable whenever. Maybe even on October 18 in Indianapolis, when the Colts host the Pats for Sunday Night Football.
Really, after being shredded for 423 rushing yards and seven touchdowns in two games against New England a year ago, it would seem obvious that Indy would bolster the middle of its defense. But instead....wide receiver.
[......] All things considered, the first round couldn't have worked out any better for New England. Last week, I listed Brown as one of the players the Patriots could target
if they traded up into the mid-20s. He was a great value at No. 32.
