Biggest needs are depth. No one single high draft star will change this team. We need depth. You can't predict injuries, but it seems that you can predict that the Colts will be near the top in players lost to injury.

Wow, this really sucks. He's been an anchor at RG.

We need to upgrade the starting 22. Lol at you guys complaining about depth. No team has depth at the oline. If they do that guy gets snatched up by another team. There is a defiency of quality tackles and oline in general. The only teams drafting for depth are Super Bowl teams. Even then you don’t spend a top 100 pick on depth. You draft starters or try to upgrade starters.

We need an upgrade at rt maybe. If Clark can do it then we are set. Can’t rely on Good staying healthy


AC is fine

While I agree, we haven't seen him play yet this season. Also he has only 1 more year on his contract. It is time to find his potential successor.

If we decide to keep AC beyond next season, then maybe the guy we draft is our RT until AC can't do it anymore.

I'm not advocating that we have to draft a Tackle in the 1st round. But, that we need to seriously consider it in those first 50 picks.

Depends on how the 1st round shakes out. There are supposedly some good OTs available. If there's a clear BPA OT, I'm absolutely on board. Then hopefully grab a good WR with one of the 2nd rounders.

I want to see what happens with Smith. And between him, Clark, and Good. Someone should be able to fill it. Also Taylor Lewan is set to become a FA this off season.

Nothing officicial yet but 11 starters did not practice today and Ebron was noted to have a shin, calf, knee, and quad injury so expect him to have to have his leg amputated.

Big Joe spent time in the locker room yesterday and based on his convo with players thinks for sure AC, Mack, Hairston, and Leonard are back. Says no way is Kenny Moore back, doesn't know re TY, and thinks it's unlikely that Jack Doyle returns. .......take it for what it's worth.....not official.
