  Draft Scout by Conference









  Two text messages pinged on Kendall Coleman's cell phone Saturday evening immediately after the final pick of the NFL Draft was announced: one from his agent, one from a scout on the Indianapolis Colts. The former Syracuse football defensive end spent the previous three days waiting, hoping to hear his name called. But as the event wound down, the next-best outcome began to materialize. Coleman's hometown Colts emerged as a free agent suitor.

The franchise spoke with Coleman early in the pre-draft process, but had been quiet in recent weeks. That changed as Coleman's agent explored UDFA possibilities during the seventh round of the draft. The texts included details on a formal offer as well as the assurance that Indianapolis views Coleman as a strong fit with a legitimate chance to compete for a roster spot during preseason camp. Surrounded by his parents, brother and sister, Coleman didn't need long to finalize a decision. "Everybody's reaction was just being ecstatic," Coleman said. "Just being overly happy about the fact that, at the end of the day, every kid dreams about hearing their name called, but I still put myself in position to chase my dreams." - The Post-Standard
