I'm getting tired of former basketball playing "project" players and injured guys getting picked. Y'all know more than I do, but for me this feels like a C- draft so far. Gotta wait and see though (until October at the earliest in the case of today's pick).

Glad I decided to opt out of this crap tonight. More glad that Dam is still in melt down mode

I checked Colts.com to see who had the more ridicules posts. Its a toss up. Im disappointed in some of you for making it close.


In case some of you don't know. Ballard knows more than we do. Trust the process.

We went from a shit hole and a street pickup LT (playoffs) to a couple pass rushers from the AFCCG

I get it. Everyone has opinions. Just try to see the logic and mind set in this.

Ballard does not and will not draft for NEED. He says it ...he does it... One of these days you'll get that. It is ALWAYS BPA which is a winning mindset.

I have said many times that I dont expect a LT drafted when there are better players on the board. TBH. I thought CB or WR would be BPA at 54 and expected that pick.

We have a mobile QB now. Very comparable to Andrew Luck. Probably as close as we get without having the top pick in the draft this yr.

LT is important. BUT not at the expense of building a better TEAM

Ballard has a plan. trust it He's more right than anyone on here

Pure, total, complete, absolute delusion.

I call BS on that Puck, Ballard does not know more than I do, and neither does any other GM in the NFL. Dam tried his best to know more than I do, but he failed. Nobody, and I mean nobody knows more than I do about who the Colts should sign in free agency and who they should draft. Shit, I should be the GM and head coach of the Colts. With all due respect, quit with your nonsense, please.

Unpucker your a holes, it will be fine.

They will move Smith. Finding a RT isnt as hard. Hells bells play a TE on the right and run the ball and go RPO or just straight play action. This isnt Armafricken gedon

Great post. LMAO.

Replacing Costanzo was priority #1 yet we chose to replace Houston and Autry. Ballard tried to get cute this should’ve been a fuckin slam dunk

Couldn't agree more !!

But he WAS hurt and won't be available until October !! Colts could have drafted a plug and play tackle in the first round and didn't, Ballard trying to be to cute.

Turray looks to be ok if he can stay healthy and stop jumping offsides on 4th down. Hopefully this year's class will buck that trend, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Does doubling down on DE mean he's given up on Banogo and Lewis,two of his worst draft picks ?

apparently you haven't watched Wentz play a lot !! When he starts getting hit he starts throwing to the wrong colored jerseys. I don't know why most posters think that Wentz is the next Luck.

That only works if the Browns have the same # of picks over the next two years. The Colts have 2 picks to Philly if Wentz works out? And how he plays will will determine which round?

You are comparing two different Philosophies, picks and multiple years. You cant use Cleveland to justify what Ballard should do for Indy.. Ballard must take a long term view, not a yearly view.
