The Colts are hosting standout LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers for a pre-draft visit on Thursday.  Nabers compiled 1,569 yards and 14 touchdowns with the Tigers last season and is projected as one of the top wide receivers in the draft.  It’s a position of need for the Colts, without question, so they should definitely […]
