Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints

New Orleans Saints Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Indianapolis moved up 20 spots in the fifth round for guard Matt Johnson, sending New Orleans picks No. 158 and No. 195. Johnson never appeared in an NFL regular-season game. The Saints used No. 158 on tight end Austin Wheatley and No. 195 on defensive back Michael Hawthorne; Hawthorne played 63 career games and made 19 starts. That usable sixth-round return gives New Orleans the win.
