Default In the upcoming draft

Do you think the Colts should trade up and draft a QB?

If yes, who do you think they should target?

As it stands right now, of the QB needy teams that have a 1st rd pick, we have the ability to get the 2nd QB drafted.

I'm predicting that the Texans will take Bryce Young at #1.

The problem being that none of the QB's in this draft appear to be of the caliber of a Mahomes, Allen, Herbert etc.

This is true, but there are a couple who's ceiling matches those guys play. With the state of our QB room how do we not take that chance on one of them? If it fails or the potential is not there, we do it again next year, and the next year etc. This franchise is not going anywhere without "HIM" under center.

That’s assuming none of the other teams who want a qb trade up.

except dont you need to give a rookie QB a bit of time to adjust to the league, find himself, and settle in? Unless you think you have a cant-miss-QB like manning or luck you shouldnt make that determination after one season unless he's a colossal fuck up.

Yes, I meant in general, if it doesn't work, do it again. I didn't necessarily mean the next year. Should have clarified, my bad.

I won't be mad. His ceiling is a Josh Allen type QB, his floor is Ryan Leaf. Depends on how well we develop him. He is mentally and physically tough.
