Players arrived in Indianapolis for the Colts’ rookie mini-camp, which will go on throughout this weekend. As the new rookie class showed up, the Colts organization took to the task of trying to sign several of their new acquisitions. The Indianapolis Colts are looking to get these players ready to go as soon as possible.

On Thursday, the Colts signed no less than six of their 2013 NFL Draft picks. The players signed to the Colts include:

Hugh Thornton – Guard – 3rd round pick – Illinois

Kerwynn Williams – Running Back – 7th round pick – Utah State

Khaled Holmes – Center – 4th round pick – Southern California

Justice Cunningham – Tight End – 7th round pick – South Carolina

John Boyett – Safety – 6th round pick – Oregon

Montori Hughes – Defensive Tackle – 5th round pick – Tennessee-Martin

The Colts also signed Rick Schmeig, an undrafted center from Purdue.

Rookie mini-camp for the Indianapolis Colts begins Friday, and continues through this weekend.

Indianapolis Colts Trade Center A.Q. Shipley

On Thursday, the Indianapolis Colts continued to trim down their roster.

The Colts made a trade with the Baltimore Ravens, swapping center A.Q. Shipley for a conditional pick in the 2014 NFL Draft. On the Colts end, the trade may be more about making room for some new talent on the offensive line, as well as trying to build up picks for their draft next season.

Shipley, who was brought to the Colts in January of last year, did well when called upon in the 2012 season. Due to numerous injuries to starting center Samson Satele, Shipley appeared in 14 games last season. Shipley started at the center position for the final three games of the regular season.

Although Shipley stepped up when his number was called, he was still a part a very shaky offensive line in Indianapolis. The Colts have spent the last two years trying to build a solid offensive line for Andrew Luck, and it seems that they will continue to try new pieces in new places, until those pieces fit.
