I heard on DP show this morning the analogy to what KC did when reid came in. Reid didnt really like anyone available so they got alex smith and waited with him until they could draft their future.

Using that formula the Colts will have their QB when, 2026, maybe 2025 ?? Just in time to start the rebuild all over again ! Ballard should target a guy that could be the guy, and go balls to the wall to try to get him ( to be honest I have no idea who that could be ), he can't just keep kicking the can down the road year after year

Winston is more exciting than the other two.

Mitch Trubisky is signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers, per source.

Glad that's off the board.

you put it in your own damn post "to be honest I have no idea who that could be"

with the lack of a difference maker available you dont do something stupid like give up picks for a lackluster guy that you will probably get rid of in a few years anyway.

maybe we should have pushed harder for stafford last year. there is no one this year. rodgers wasnt leaving GB and wilson had a no trade and wasnt coming here.

maybe jimmy g can be good for us but I would hope we wouldnt give up anything more than a 3 for him.

Problem is that that guy isn’t out there this year.

So the latest is…. Baker Mayfield would prefer Colts If he’s traded

NO WAY. We might as well play Sam instead.

I kinda think (or maybe its hope) that baker is a bit of a smoke screen from indy's POV. They probably want jimmy g but are playing as coy as possible to drive price down. I also read that now it seems we are really the only suitors for jimmy g so ballard is biding time and playing the baker angle.

At this point, Jimmy G is our best possible option right now, outside of Carr. Baker would be my 3rd choice reluctantly.

The #Browns have been informed they’re out of the running for Deshaun Watson, a source says. The team still views Baker Mayfield as their quarterback going forward. They told Mayfield’s agents at the Combine they’d only explore top-tier QBs such as Watson.


I imagine this will end the Mayfield to Indy speculation.
