Colts Acquire DT DeForest Buckner
No longer have to worry about who the Colts will draft at 13.......I guess Ballard loves DT's more than his draft picks.
Pick 13 for DeForest Buckner. https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/sta...43423256317957 Quote:

"A monster inside: collapses the middle for copious sacks, and is prolific for a D-lineman making tackles. A towering talent on the D-line: jumbo-sized, yet also quick and explosively athletic. Has a truly elite wingspan with huge hands, and uses those gifts to really manhandle opponents. Knows how to get inside blockers and will move his man around. Must learn to play with more leverage and balance to get the most from his amazing size and athleticism. Gets stood up at times by mauling blockers, and sometimes gets off his feet two quickly reaching for tackles. A bit of a late bloomer who's still learning to maximize his gifts." |
I love it!

Not sure how I feel about this. I don’t typically like giving up a high pick and immediately having to pay a guy top money. I’m not sure they wouldn’t have been better off in the long run taking a DT in the draft with one of the top two pics. Damn good player though.

Obviously Ballard not sold the QBs - at least at 13 - but I suppose he could always trade back into Round 1 with our seconds.

Pick up a couple more strong Defensive players in draft and this is a very good Defense.
Will be interesting to see what Ballard does with the pair of 2nd rounders now. |

Monster and is already established as opposed to an unproven guy at 13

Ballard might be ready to roll the dice this year. He HAS to add a QB and I'm sure he knows this. Colts Defense just got better while the Texans offense took a huge blow. |
I hope this doesn't mean Ballard is going to give Rivers a blank check. I hope this does mean Ballard is pursuing Bridgewater.
