The Colts added eight players in the 2015 draft and they’re more than halfway toward having the entire group under contract.

The team announced Wednesday that they have signed their five third day picks. Fourth-round safety Clayton Geathers, fifth-round defensive tackle David Parry, sixth-round running back Josh Robinson, sixth-round linebacker Amarlo Herrera and seventh-round tackle Denzelle Good have agreed to their four-year rookie deals with the team.

Geathers fits a need for safety depth in Indianapolis and could be a contender to move into a starting role next year with Dwight Lowery on a one-year deal with the team. He started 52 games for Central Florida and his 53 total games played are tied for the most in school history.

The Colts traded up for Parry and there could be playing time in the Stanford product’s immediate future if he can provide the team with a bit more resistance to the run than they had up front last season. Robinson could also work his way into the mix quickly after running for 1,203 yards and an SEC-best 11 touchdowns at Mississippi State. Frank Gore holds the top spot on the depth chart, but the roles behind him will likely be up in the air over the next few months.

Herrera led Georgia in tackles as a senior, but will probably have to show special teams skills to make the roster and get early playing time. The good news about Good is that he didn’t allow a sack during his college career. He played at Mars Hill University, though, and will be facing a major step up from the competition he saw as a collegiate player.
