Hopefully we’ll see how they feel. Tillery should be an option at 26 and maybe even 34.

I'm not at all unhappy with either Eberflus or Ballard, overall I think they will likely be the best we've had in years at their positions. But I will never be convinced that getting rid of Hankins, Anderson, and Simon were good moves. I get that Hankins was a money thing moreso than scheme fit, he was as good a fit or better than Woods or Stewart. With Anderson and Simon though, they were good players that I think team leadership should've been able to utilize.

Was listening to a podcast with Jake Arthur. He was asked what he saw as a really good, realistic scenario for the Colts with their first three picks. He said Ferrell, Simmons, and a DB at 59 like Darnell Savage, Rock-Ya Sin, or Deandre Baker.

That definitely seems realistic and would be an impressive haul.

That would be ideal. If you told me the Colts could have that at the beginning of the process, I'd've taken it no questions asked. If they do go DB at 59, a name I'd watch for is Juan Thornhill.

Also makes me wonder how open Ballard would be to trading down if he could get an early 2nd and another early pick in Rd 3 coming back. Then he could conceivably come out of Day 2 with top 100 players at DE, DL, S, CB, and WR.

1) I think most of us would agree that the Colts need to come out of the draft with a good option at WR and that 34 is the first place they should consider it.
2) I wonder if the Colts are driving some of these rumors. If Simmons is still on the board after Round 1, this type of rumor could push either the Cardinals or a team trading up to 33 to target a WR.

But will he be a BPA will all the talent on defense in this draft?

Of course they're high on Lindstrom, he's an athletic guard and they seem to like those. I suppose I'd be okay with him at 59, but I think he'll be gone by then. I hope they don't pop him at 34.

There was some other guard they liked as well. I want to say He was from Duke. I’ll have to look it up again.

Adding to this, a Bleacher Report podcast today said the Colts, Titans, and Raiders have been looking hard at Marquise Brown. That being said, does anyone else get the impression that this scouting staff looks hard at everybody? They seem to leave no stone unturned.
