Colts Select Deion Burks with Pick No. 254
The Indianapolis Colts have selected Oklahoma wide receiver Deion Burks with the 254th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. The undersized Sooner put up a blazing 4.30-second 40-time at the NFL Combine after spending five seasons with Purdue and Oklahoma. While he found the most success working on the outside in college, he projects to more of a slot role in the NFL. Though with offenses trending toward bigger bodies at the position, Burks could struggle to find the field outside of a dedicated gadget role. With Josh Downs already on the roster and tight end Tyler Warren taking almost half his snaps from the slot as a rookie, Burks may need to find a special teams role to stick with the team out of training camp.
