Colts Scout Louisville WR Chris Bell for Pittman Replacement

0:00On April 7th, the Indianapolis Colts are scouting Louisville wide receiver Chris Bell as a possible replacement for Michael Pittman Jr. in the basting. Upcoming NFL draft, they're hosting him for a top 30 visit this week. Bell led his team with 72 catches, 9-17 yards, and 6 touchdowns last season, earning first team all ACC honors. Before a torn ACL sideline him in late November, Bell had late first round buzz. The injury was a clean tear, and he's skipping most pre-draft workouts to rehab. Now he's sliding to day two, making him a potential steal for teams like the Colts, who lack a first round pick, but hold the 47th overall. Selection. Colts fans see value here, especially with their current receivers. Alec Pierce, Josh Downes, and Titan Tyler Warren handling the load short term. Grabbing Pittman's successor outside the first round could boost the offense without burning premium assets. That said, Indy has bigger holes at edge rusher and linebacker, so Bell might not be the priority.

1:02Still, passing on a talent like him feels risky given their roster setup. Bell already visited the New York Jess today, and heads to Indianapolis next for Combine Rejects. Keep an eye on how this plays out as draft season heats up.
