Pro Football Weekly reports that the Indianapolis Colts are likely to target ”at least one’ of the Ravens free agents.
The report specifically mentions OLB Jarret Johnson as being the logical fit for the Colts who are believed to be making a transition to a hybrid 3-4 defensive scheme. Johnson, 30, has been a very versatile player for the Ravens and shown the ability to play defensive end and outside linebacker which has to be something that new head coach Chuck Pagano would be interested in.
Ravens CB Lardarius Webb is also mentioned as another possibility for the Colts but that would require the Ravens to place a low tender on him or the Colts to give up their first-round pick and sign him to a long-term deal because Webb is a restricted free agent. Baltimore has said that keeping Webb is one of their offseason priorities so I really can’t see them allowing him to leave.
