With the 24th overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, the Colts select Florida St. DE Bjorn Werner. Born and raised in Berlin, Germany, Werner enjoyed American football growing up and joined a club team before moving to the United States as a high school exchange student, playing two seasons and emerging as a top recruit. He has developed his football knowledge and technique substantially the past five years, flashing a top football IQ and instincts. Werner has the frame and athleticism to win with flashes of speed or power, although he needs to improve his motor for all four quarters. He has proven to be much more than just a pass rusher, showing much better awareness against the run and at the line of scrimmage to swat passes down. He's has the potential to be an impact starting strong-side DE in a four-man front. Source: NFL.com

Mathis is going to switch to the right side and become the primary pass-rusher. Werner will play on the left and take over what Mathis did last year.
