At 5\u201911\u201d, 194 lbs, Marshall\u2019s stature doesn\u2019t wow you, yet his statistical output in two years as a key contributor for the Wolfpack suggests that he\u2019s nothing to scoff at. His combination of instincts and general ball skills explains how he\u2019s around the ball as often as he is.<\/p>\n
Devon Marshall totaled 50 tackles, two interceptions, one forced fumble, and a nation-high 16 passes broken up in his Senior season, earning an 86.1 grade from Pro Football Focus<\/a> \u2014 the 22nd best grade among all 897 qualifying cornerbacks.<\/p>\n However, his 4.24 relative athletic score<\/a> is the opposite of what this regime has typically coveted. That, coupled with a deep cornerback room already in place, is enough to question just how much interest is actually there. Still, general manager Chris Ballard<\/a> and Co. have recently begun deviating from the norm, so no longer are the days when subpar athletes are immediately counted out as potential Colts fits.<\/p>\n Perhaps the Colts are merely doing their homework, which, given that Marshall is viewed as a Day 3 (rounds 4-7) draft selection, makes even more sense as they could potentially add him to the mix via a preferred UDFA signing if things don\u2019t go as planned for Marshall and his camp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"At 5\u201911\u201d, 194 lbs, Marshall\u2019s stature doesn\u2019t wow you, yet his statistical output in two years as a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":861710,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2059],"tags":[2005,7,2004,392,3562,2381,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-861709","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-indianapolis-colts","8":"tag-colts","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-indianapolis","11":"tag-indianapolis-colts","12":"tag-indianapolis-colts-news","13":"tag-indianapoliscolts","14":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/861709","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=861709"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/861709\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/861710"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=861709"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=861709"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=861709"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
