In all seriousness though, hoping for Raimann, an Edge they like (preferably not Ojabo), or a trade down at 42, though trade downs seem to be getting bad value this year. Drafting a WR high doesn't make a lot of sense, and with how trades have gone this year, 122 should've been enough to go from 42 to 32 to pick up the 5th year option if they liked a QB as a franchise guy, so I doubt they're high on Willis (don't blame them) or Corral.

If they come out of Day 2 with an Edge and an OT, that's a win. If that's accomplished while also trading down and picking up more picks, even better. IMO there's more value on Day 3 at WR and TE than there is at Edge and OT.

defensive end. that is the position on the colts. not edge.

i would be happy with a de and ot. but really want a wr with 42 if a guy is there.

I predict roughly half the fans will call him a genius and half will call for him to be fired no matter who he picks.

Yeah, I agree. Drafting BPA instead of need is definitely the way to go rebuilding. With the current circumstances of having a 37 year old QB, filling immediate needs is hopefully a higher factor. At least if the 2 prospects are really close in evaluation.

Hopefully you all are watching the Pat McAfee show for the draft. He has the picks done without all the bullshit way ahead of everyone else. Sometimes a whole pick ahead.

Is he doing Day 2? If so, is there a link?

I watch the Bootleg Football Podcast coverage for the analysis, and it has to be that because they're usually a pick behind.

It's easier to say edge defender when talking about 34 OLBs/43 DEs who primarily rush the passer.

Yep, been watching Pat. You are correct "without all the bullshit"!

So are we playing the draft game Puck suggested awhile back? Think the rule was to put in your top 3 before the pick 2 ahead of us is in?
