With the depth of RB in this draft I think we can grab a guy in the 4th or 5th. I think next year is our RB in the 1st year. How many will that be since 2000? Anyway I like that LSU RB next year. We really need defense in the worst way. It has been so bad I think Colts fans have forgotten how useful a good defense really is.

It's my dream scenario...so it will never happen;

1)Reddick-LB, 2)Bowser-OLB, 3)Witherspoon-CB, 4)Douglas-CB, 4)Brian Hill-RB, 4)Siragusa-OG, 5)Hodges-TE

I think that would be a killer haul. Would take a safety in the 4th if I really thought the RG situation was solved. Not so sure.

That could happen. Depends how high Bowser has risen on boards. But I see this draft definitely possible. There will be talent well into the 4th and 5th in this draft.

In this thread: people who have read other people's draft opinions for 2 months and watched a YouTube highlights package, and me being a buzzkill.

Yeah you say this every year. We're not draft experts. Neither are you, and neither are a lot of the people getting paid a lot to write about the draft. Hell, Grigson is one of many who proved you don't have to be good at scouting to get a job drafting players.

It is better than back in the day when all people did was check out 40 times and judge guys. Now only dam does that.

But I do think some dudes get super douchey when it comes to the draft. The guys that say things like a cb has bad hips or some dumb shit

40 times matter
Bench reps matter

WTF else do you need to see?

Show me a highlight reel and tell me his college and level of competition and I'll tell you if he's worth therisk or not. Any pick is a fuckin gamble, nobody knows if these guys want to do anything after they get paid
