Rob Morris
Middle linebacker
INDIANAPOLIS COLTS


He is the poster child for the improvement of the Colts defense. Taken with the 28th overall pick in April, Morris has been counted on to step into the starting lineup at middle linebacker from day one. The BYU product will be a solid pro, but for him to become the heart of a defense may be too much to ask -- even for a 25-year-old rookie. The 6-foot-2, 250-pounder was lauded for his explosive pursuit of the ball in college. The Colts need Morris to chase down running backs if they're to make a run at Super Bowl XXXV.
