“In return, the Colts would land a Day 3 pick and Legette, who is due just $4.4 million combined over the next two seasons,” Barnwell wrote. “If Indianapolis needs to spend money elsewhere, Legette would make sense slotting in as a third or fourth wide receiver behind Pierce, Josh Downs and potentially Ashton Dulin. Ballard has loved drafting high-end athletes at receiver during his time in Indianapolis, and Legette certainly qualifies. Having just turned 25, Legette still might have some room for growth. And if he fails to get there, it at least wouldn’t cost the Colts much.”
