The Miami Dolphins and the Denver Broncos are two teams that could impact the first round of the NFL draft for the Indianapolis Colts.

According to Ian Rapoport, the Dolphins are among the teams looking to move back, and the Broncos are among the teams looking to trade up.

So what does that have to do with the Colts?

Well, the Dolphins hold pick No. 13--one ahead of the Colts--and the Broncos, who sit at pick 20, are among the teams who reportedly are looking to add to the tight end position.

Meaning, that there could be a world out there where the Broncos jump ahead of the Colts in a trade with the Dolphins to take Michigan tight end Colston Loveland.

This is exactly the scenario that played out in Daniel Jeremiah's mock draft, and could be a worst-case scenario for the Colts, with many expecting Tyler Warren to be a top 10 pick. This would leave them in a position where they may have to wait until Day 2 to address their biggest need and unable to do so with one of the top two prospects in this year's class.

Perhaps in the Colts are feeling that heat from the Broncos, it could force GM Chris Ballard to be more aggressive and move up the draft board to jump the Dolphins, if they are of the mindset that they have to get one of Warren or Loveland.

This could be something for Colts fans to monitor as the first round unfolds.
