Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2023 revision of our top 50 Indianapolis Colts.

As for all of our top 50 players in football, we look at the following:

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Football League.

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Colts failed to make the playoffs, but we saw one new entrant and one elevation.

As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:

1. Peyton Manning
2. Johnny Unitas
3. Gino Marchetti
4. Marvin Harrison
5. Raymond Berry 

You can find the entire list here.

Offensive Lineman and six-time Pro Bowl Selection Quenton Nelson, advances to #22 from #30.

The lone new entry is Center Ryan Kelly, who debuts at #45.

Notably, Shaquille Leonard, who played half last season with Indianapolis, could not rise from his rank of #40.

Buddy Young fell out of the Top 50.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

Wide Receiver, T.Y. Hilton moved up one spot to #24.

Left Guard, Quenton Nelson, who has been a First Team All-Pro in all three of his seasons comes in at #48.

2018 Defensive Rookie of the Year, Darius Leonard enters at #49.

We welcome your input and commentsand as always, we thank you for your support.

Quenton Nelson had only been with the Indianapolis Colts for six years (the same amount that he has been in the NFL), but it has been amongst the most prolific of any six-year period of any Offensive Linemen in Colts history.

Nelson was highly coveted, going number three overall in 2018 from Notre Dame, and he was immediately plugged in as the starting Left Guard.  In the six seasons he has played, he has been a First Team All-Pro three times, a Pro Bowler in all of them has had at least 14 in Approximate Value in the first three seasons, an incredible accomplishment that few can match.

Still a Colt, he could easily vault many spots on this list in the coming years.

2023 Pre-Season Rank #42, 2022 Pre-Season Rank #51, 2021 Pre-Season Rank #78, 2020 Pre-Season Rank #89. Peak Period: 2018-22

No other Offensive Linemen who debuted in 2018 have been as good as Nelson.  Six years don’t make the Hall for an O-Lineman (well, it did for Tony Boselli), but when you lay out a three-year streak of First Team All-Pro with a Pro Bowl every year, this bodes well for a bust in Canton.  Nelson’s AV/G is well over the MPA, which is very impressive.
