Edwards-Helaire ran a 4.6 and I'd've taken him over Taylor in a heartbeat.



They took a Day 3 guy at 41 is what I'm saying. Again, I hope he proves me wrong, but a RB with a fumbling problem and high mileage is like a WR who can't catch or run routes. Why would I care how good the positives are at that point?

Did you go bald and someone gave you a comb for Christmas?

Hines is plenty explosive and doesn't have fumblitis. Wilkins breaks off big runs all the time and doesn't have fumblitis.

Wilkins has fumble problems, he was in the doghouse bc of them. Hines is more of the third down back. He can take it over a for a game, but if Mack is out for say 6 games he isn't a realistic option.

The tweet from the Colts twitter account indicates pick 197 was sent to Detroit.

Colts trade: Pick 75, Pick 197.

Lions trade: Pick 85, Pick 149, Pick 182.

Good move.

I don't feel the need to mindlessly applaud every pick. I praised the Pittman pick because I thought it was a good one. I don't like the Taylor pick. GMs do make mistakes, and even the best miss on (typically more than) 50% of their picks. The trade was good as well, but you don't have to be a mindless sheep. Critical thinking is allowed.

A Day 3 guy? On what planet?

Apparently Ballard has a different view of “value”, than what the fans think. The big difference is that many of us will not lose our jobs based on the Colts draft

I get people not liking the pick. But I can't honestly believe most fans having the guy as a 3rd day pick.

Like I don't think Herbert is anything to write home about, but he was still a Day 1 pick to me, and it seemed fairly obvious.

Jabari Zuniga - one of the most athletic DE's in the draft
Jordan Elliot - PFF's top rated DT in the draft and a 3-tech, Kiper's current best available overall
Devin Duvernay - WR from Texas with a 100 catches, runs like a RB
Adam Trautman - Dayton TE, who I think is the best TE in the draft, not Kmet.
Gandy Goldman - Big small school receiver who can run, catch and get yac

We are waiting Dammy, Taylor is a great pick, as was Nelson last year

[smitty46953]

I hope Cushenberry is there, backup at C maybe Glowinski replacement. Need depth
