Just saw a mock which had the following players off the board when we picked in the 1st round:
Myles Garrett, Reuben Foster, Mitch Trubisky, Jonathan Allen, Teez Tabor, Deshaun Watson, Malik Hooker, Derek Barnett (darn), Corey Davis, Jamal Adams, Marshon Lattimore, Dalvin Cook, Sidney Jones and Mike Williams. The following players were filled up the rest of the round including our pick: Colts = Tim Williams, OLB, Alabama CB Cordrea Tankersley, Clemson RB Leonard Fournette, LSU CB Tre'Davious White, LSU WR John Ross, Washington OT Ryan Ramczyk, Wisconsin DE Carl Lawson, Alburn (4-3 DE; would need to transition to 3-4 OLB) DE Charles Harris, Missouri (4-3 DE; would need to transition to 3-4 OLB) DT Soloman Thomas, Stanford DT Malik McDowell, Michigan State QB Patrick Mahomes, Texas Tech TE O.J. Howard, Alabama CB Jourdan Lewis, Michigan DE Taco Charlton, Michigan ILB Zach Cunningham, Vanderbilt CB Desmond King, Iowa OLB Takkarist McKinley, UCLA S Jabrill Peppers, Michigan To you like taking Williams that high or is there someone else on the list below us that you favor? Cheers,

From that list? From everything that I've heard/read (and obviously I'm no expert), Williams has some baggage that is dropping his stock considerably. I would be very shocked with Fournette and Solomon Thomas still being available. If Thomas is the pick, I would be good with it... unless a team calls and makes an offer Indy can't refuse. I'm still pretty high on LB Haason Reddick though and with the list of available players I think it's a decent probability that one of the top 5 edge rushers will still be available in the 2nd round.

Chad Reuter's mock had the Colts taking Christian McCafferey. You know, it would almost be worth it just to read the message boards & Twitter

In all reality though, I don't really know much about this draft class yet. And I get really annoyed by the Sudden Draft Scouts who emerge every February thinking you can know a draft class / have watched sufficient tape etc. in the week since the Super Bowl ended.
But I trust a few scouts out there. And a guy who has me intrigued is Quincy Wilson (the CB/S from Florida, the one opposite Teez Tabor). Hard to say where he'll land up on boards (most have him top half of Round 2 right now, but trying to forecast February big boards is an exercise in futility), but he sounds like a fresh-outta-college Vontae Davis from a lot of what I've heard/read, basically. Know this team needs pass rush, but if you can't get an ace pass-rusher at 15, I wouldn't mind buying your pass-rushers drafted in Rounds 2-7 some more time with a corner who fits this team in the long-term view of things. |

I would hate that pick.....It's got to be Edge or CB. Why do they have to draft a running back at all? Gore will finish off his contract. Take 6 defensive guys and one OL to either replace Harrison or upgrade on Haeg or Good. Those guys are decent depth not playoff caliber lineman, at least not yet.
