The Colts have their version of Favre!

Nah. They wont draft a QB this yr. Other than Burrow or Tua the rest are just players taking up a roster space. How many of the others are actually more talented than Kelly? JB is here for this yr . they will look next yr.

I like Jaime Newman in next yrs draft

Personally I think at #34 we need to add a top WR (Laviska Shenault or Brandon Aiyuk) either would be fine, just need bolster our receiving corps. Brissett aside, after T.Y. Hilton the cupboard is bare other than Campbell who we hope develops and can stay on the field.

Then at #44 I like Jalen Hurts if available to develop as our QB of the future. I personally like him much better than Jordan Love.

Jalen Hurts (6’1/222) QB Oklahoma
Hurts was always a good athlete at Alabama, but his improvement as a passer since transferring to Oklahoma is what has teams impressed. His sense of timing and anticipation has gotten a lot better. He exhibits very good lateral agility both in the pocket and in the open field. Last season under head coach Lincoln Riley, Hurts’ passing motion, comfortability, and efficiency took a massive leap. He led the nation in YPA (11.5) His accuracy is entirely underrated. Hurts has good velocity behind his throws and can fit his passes into tight windows. Throwing on the run is another asset in his game, as his athleticism and accuracy make him a tough quarterback to defend when he rolls out or scrambles. However, he must continue to improve his processing and willingness to stay inside the pocket. He is only 21 years old and is by all accounts very coachable. Hurts is also a very valuable runner; he ran for 1,298 yards on 233 attempts for an average of 5.57 yards per carry for 20 total TD’s. He has great breakaway speed for the quarterback position. He led college football, including running backs, in red zone rushing touchdowns (17) last season. He does need to be more consistent in terms of identifying the check down option and going through his progressions. Don’t sell Hurts short, he has starting-level upside with a little coaching and development.

:cool:

I think they could get him in the 3-4 if they wanted him. Despite all the hype from the talking heads I don't think this is a very good draft class after the top 2.

I agree on WR though. And now CB might move ahead of WR just because the WR class is so deep and there has been a few FA WR signed to drive even more picks down the board

Lamar Jackson was viewed as a first round QB even with all his flaws at the time. No one thinks Jalen Hurts is a first round QB.

He isn't. Late 2nd early 3rd is where I peg him.

there are idiots who do

Right, but it's not like a Russell Wilson situation where there's a height issue or something like that, it's the concerns with accuracy. Watch his tape vs. LSU. That's what he'd look like as a starter against NFL defenses.

I'm an OU fan dude. I could see that Burrow was the superior QB. When you are drafting a QB in the late 2nd early 3rd, you know that you have to develop them.

I think that Hurts has the same issues as Brissett, but is so much more gifted athletically that he's worth the risk.

Burrow didn't play on LSU's defense. Hurts was 3/12 with 1 or 2 INTs in that game prior to garbage time.
