Alex Smith, and it took years for him to develop and has never been known as a downfield passer.

Campbell will not have a problem getting open deep.

From what I saw Campbell helped his QB out a lot. I think he and Luck will complement each other nicely.

One thing that concerned me was he only caught one pass over 20 yards. But he was so ridiculously effective in his role, they didn’t need him to, anyway, he is a few years away from being a complete receiver. But he should have an impact on certain plays right away.
He will be getting the ball thrown to him from a proven NFL QB in Luck. I'm not sold on Haskins at all. Campbell should thrive with Luck at QB

Interview yesterday I heard on ESPN, specifically asked about the Colts draft class and the main thing they mentioned is all these guys have speed, the team should be much faster on offense and defense.

I love the combination of TY and Campbell. I think they will be challenging to cover both, will be much harder to double up on TY making sure he doesn't beat a team deep when you have Campbell to consider as well

Throw in then Doyle/Ebron at TE to consider as well and it becomes a match up nightmare for the defenses.

Dont forget Cain . He ran a 4.43 at combine. I know that is per injury but if he can run a 4.4 he is probably faster than TY right now. TY was a 4.3 guy at combine but I assume he is not that fast now.

Be scary to see all 3 on the field at the same time.

Obviously if Cain comes back healthy.

I would throw Hines into that equation as well. Can you imagine 1st down and a team in it's base defense, with Hines and Campbell both lined up in the backfield?

What if they both ran wheel routes? How the fuck does the defense cover that?

Haskins was a solid college QB and a great deep ball thrower. It wasn’t the QB. I would probably blame how they used him if anything.

Curious to see if Fountain has developed more. He is a great athlete also.

TY was getting behind guys all last year on a bum leg. He's still got some go in him

Yes, while true , a lot of solid college QBs never make it or prove to be an NFL QB. Haskins may but Luck already is.

Oh I agree. But still don’t think he has a 4.3 in him But he is plenty fast enough

Crazy to think TY might be the slow guy
