They have prospect fits for all teams on the link above. You can go read them if you want, but here it is their prospect fit for the Colts:

INDIANAPOLIS COLTS: DI JAVON KINLAW, SOUTH CAROLINA

Kinlaw has earned overall grades of 85.0 or higher on 500 or more defensive snaps each of the past two seasons for South Carolina. When you hear him talk at the combine about how he was limited in his pass-rushing moves and how he thinks he can take a big leap forward with better coaching in the NFL, it’s hard not to like his prospects. Kinlaw has the sort of size, length and burst you can’t teach. Paired with the production he’s put on tape, Kinlaw is a borderline top-10 prospect in the draft. 

 

Colts general manager Chris Ballard said during his end-of-the-year press conference, “The 3-technique drives this thing. It does. Every time I’ve been a part of this, the 3-technique drives this.” Grover Stewart, Margus Hunt and Denico Autry all saw time on the interior for the Colts, but none of them are close to the dominant presence that Kinlaw brings as a 3-technique. The Colts’ big acquisition last offseason, Justin Houston, delivered in his first season in Indianapolis with an 87.1 overall grade. There wasn’t a whole lot in the way of pass rush outside of him, though. Kinlaw would help remedy that.

Depends on his pro day. The knee issue for a big guy is a big concern.

It depends on his medicals more than anything. I doubt his pro day shows us something we didn't already know. The question is what is the root for his knee tendinitis... is there any serious problem that keeps returning or was it just happenstance and bad luck it cut his Senior Bowl and his combine short.

Jacob Eason, we need a QB.

Makes sense, but still want to see the pro day. Does he test like Brown? Does he tweak his knee again during the drills? Does he test at all due to the knee? Can he handle any kind of load?
