Polian spoke highly on draft weekend of the potential of Ray Fisher, a seventh-round draft selection from Indiana, as a cornerback, and another in-state player – Brandon King of Purdue – fits the prototype Colts undrafted free agent, a solid player from a big conference. King ran a slow 40-time for professional scouts, and that may have hurt his draft status, but the Colts liked his on-field ability coming out of college, and he or Fisher could play a role at fourth and fifth corner.
“Those guys, they’re attentive and that’s the start,” Hayden said last week. “You see these guys paying attention, taking notes well. It just gives you the observation that these guys want to be here and want to make an impact.
“It’s just like when Jerraud and Lacey came in, those guys were attentive too. You can see everybody trying to help each other. It’s not a competition thing where guys feel like they don’t need to help each other, but we have good core guys, that have great personalities and just want to be good as a team. That’s one thing we all preach on that every guy in the room that will be here, will be needed at some point in the season. Guys just want to prepare themselves.”
