The Colts were picking at 18th overall and did not have the opportunity to sign their own in-house free agent, Will Fries, who was the seventh pick by the Minnesota Vikings. However, Benjamin still had the Colts addressing the offensive line by picking the top available free-agent center, Atlanta's Drew Dalman.
The NFL's free agency negotiating window begins on Monday, March 10th. However, teams are able to re-sign their own free agents before that point. For the Indianapolis Colts, with the clock ticking, extending offensive lineman Will Fries before Monday would be the prudent move.
The Indianapolis Colts don't have many free agents they can't live without, but one in particular sticks out as a must-retain.
