The Colts finished the 2025 NFL Draft with eight new players: Tight end Tyler Warren (first round), defensive end J.T. Tuimoloau (second round), cornerback Justin Walley (third round), tackle Jalen Travis (fourth round), running back D.J. Giddens (fifth round), quarterback Riley Leonard (sixth round), defensive tackle Tim Smith (sixth round) and linebacker Hunter Wohler (seventh round). Here are 10 big things you need to know about the Colts' 2025 draft class. 

Warren spent all five years of his college career at Penn State, staying patient and working hard to earn his opportunity.

Steichen on Saturday explained what he believes first-round tight end Tyler Warren can do in the Colts' offense in 2025. 

Wohler, who played at Wisconsin for four years, has experience playing safety and linebacker.

Leonard, who played for Notre Dame in 2024, already has ties to the Colts and considers Indiana home.

Wohler totaled 191 tackles over his final two seasons at Wisconsin. 

Smith played five years at Alabama - four under Nick Saban - and says his time with the Crimson Tide has prepared him for "life, football, anything."

Smith appeared in 64 games over five seasons at Alabama, recording 14.5 tackles for a loss and 6.5 sacks. 

Leonard quarterbacked Notre Dame to the College Football Playoff final during his lone season in South Bend. 

After years of hard work and lots of faith, Giddens went from being a no-star recruit out of high school to a fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Giddens rushed for over 1,200 yards in each of the last two seasons and finished his college career with 27 total touchdowns. 

Travis' cousin, tight end Ross Travis, played for the Colts from 2017-19.

The 6-foot-7, 339 pound Travis started 11 games at left tackle for Iowa State in 2024. 

The Colts moved back 10 spots in the fourth round in exchange for a 2025 fourth-round pick and a 2025 sixth-round pick

The Colts picked Ohio State defensive end J.T. Tuimoloau and Minnesota cornerback Justin Walley on Day 2 of the 2025 NFL Draft. 

Walley was a four-year starter at Minnesota, with experience playing just about every coverage possible.

After making three selections over the first two days of the NFL Draft, the Colts enter Day 3 with picks in the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh rounds. 

Walley finished his four-year college career with 34 passes defensed and was named a Second-Team All-Big Ten player in 2024. 

As an Ohio State Buckeye, Tuimoloau earned First-Team All-Big Ten honors in 2022, 2023 and 2024 and helped the Buckeyes win the 2024 CFP National Championship.

Tuimoloau, a three-time first-team All-Big Ten honoree, totaled 43.5 tackles for a loss and 23.5 sacks during his four years at Ohio State. 

Warren is the first tight end the Colts have selected in the first round of an NFL Draft since Dallas Clark in 2003. 

The tight end's versatility, availability and aggressive mentality made him the clear choice to be the Colts' first-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.

After selecting Penn State tight end Tyler Warren with the No. 14 overall pick, the Colts have two selections on Day 2 of the 2025 NFL Draft: No. 45 overall (second round) and No. 80 overall (third round)

Warren caught 104 passes for 1,233 yards with eight touchdowns in 2024 at Penn State. 

The Colts hold the No. 14 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, which begins Thursday night in Green Bay, Wisc.

Here's what you need to know about those players – and the process that led the Colts to draft them. 

The Indianapolis Colts made nine selections in the 2024 NFL Draft

The Colts made six selections on the final day of the 2024 NFL Draft. 

Jonah Laulu said he made the decision to transfer from Hawaii to Oklahoma to grow as a defensive lineman.

Abraham said he makes up for his lack of size by having speed and a lot of ball production.

The 6-foot-5, 292 pound Laulu played his college ball at Hawaii and Oklahoma. 

Simpson said he loves competition and prides himself on playing well in big games.

Abraham had 12 interceptions in his college career. 

Carlies said over the past two seasons, he's lined up at outside linebacker when Missouri played against run-heavy teams.

Gould said while at Oregon State he ran the full route tree and lined up as an outside and slot receiver.

The Colts used the No. 164 selection in the 2024 NFL Draft on Simpson, who picked off four passes in 2023 with Auburn. 

The Colts traded the third of their three fifth-round picks to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for two selections. 

Carlies led Missouri in tackles in each of the last two seasons. 

Bortolini said he sees himself as a versatile 'swing guy' entering his rookie year.

Gould averaged over 16 yards per reception in his college career and was named a first-team All-American punt returner in 2022. 

Bortolini started 28 games for the Badgers over his four years at Wisconsin. 

The Colts added Texas wide receiver Adonai Mitchell in the second round and Pitt offensive lineman Matt Goncalves in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft on Friday, bringing in two key players who will help surround Anthony Richardson in 2024 and beyond. 

The Colts own five selections on Day 3 of the 2024 NFL Draft. 

During the pre-draft process, Goncalves said he spoke extensively with offensive line coach, Tony Sparano Jr. about how he could fit on the team.

Mitchell said he's ready to make the teams that passed on him pay.

The Colts trade up three spots in the third round to select Goncalves. 

The Colts traded third- and sixth-round selections to Arizona in exchange for the Cardinals' third-round selection in the 2024 NFL Draft. 

Mitchell had 11 touchdowns with Texas in 2023, and while with Georgia he caught the go-ahead touchdown in the 2022 College Football Playoff final at Lucas Oil Stadium. 

The Colts moved back six spots and acquired two fifth-round picks from the Carolina Panthers. 

Latu's love of football propelled him through some legitimate adversity he faced during his collegiate career. 

See what experts like NFL.com's Daniel Jeremiah and The Athletic's Dane Brugler had to say about UCLA defensive end Laiatu Latu before the Colts selected him with the No. 15 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. 

The Colts own the No. 46 (second round) and 82 (third round) selections in the 2024 NFL Draft, which re-starts Friday at 7 p.m. in Detroit. 

Latu totaled 23.5 sacks and 126 total pressures over his last two seasons with UCLA. 

Despite being told by doctors he'd never play football again in 2021, Latu said he set out to prove naysayers wrong.

Latu was one of college football's most productive and disruptive pass rushers over the last two seasons.
