Realistic Draft

Not sure I'd take O'Neill early 2nd round--it sounds like some scouts STILL regard him as "a TE playing out of position" and I don't know how that would work long-term in the NFL. But a 6' 6" 300-plus kid who can run a 4.82 40 is certainly intriguing.

But I'm hoping by #36 the BPA may be a DB, WR, or maybe an LB if one drops out of the 1st round with all the QBs, OLs, etc. going in Round One.
And, with any luck, maybe B. Smith drops to #49, where IMO he might be a better value than any OL the Colts could draft at #36 (assuming Wynn and Hernandez are both gone by then).

Someone is going to fall, someone’s always does. Smith had a medical red flag come out so he is falling a bit.
