69 picks 51 still in NFL 28 on team 21 current starters
69 out of 51 is impressive and that's reaching back 9 seasons. The average NFL career is less than four seasons, only 5 of the 35 players drafted by the Colts in the last 4 drafts are out of the league. 8 of the 18 out of the league played at least 3 seasons. In ten years of drafting players only 1 in 7 didn't last to the league average career mark. The Colts draft well.
