I would love to have a talent like this at the WR position for us. He can perfect his route running by learning from Wayne, and be our big play WR who can go up and get it for Luck. I see him as a better faster version of Demaryius Thomas. I know this WR class is deep, but if we have a chance to possibly get a stud WR, go for it!

[coltnorth]

He would be ideal but I don't see him falling to the second

I agree 100%.

I think I'd like Ruben Randle instead

I think I'd like Ruben Randle instead

Randle is shorter, slower, and has worse hands. IMO Hill is a better player.

[Mr.Debonair]

Has worse hands? Is this fact or your opinion? I haven't read scouting reports conplain bout his speed or hands. No one knew who this guy was until the combine, I dont want a combine star but a proven talent. Randle was good even with terrible QB play. I do however like his size, speed and blocking ability(coming from option) so honestly I wouldn't be upset if they picked him because of what has the potential to be

Hill is one of the few receivers I wouldn't mind taking with the 34 pick. Although I am of the opinion that WR is not a big need.

[ColtsLegacy]

If the Rams don't get Blackmon (or Floyd) in the 1st, I don't see Hill getting by them in the 2nd. So, hopefully, they take Blackmon or Floyd.

Why isn't WR a big need??

[austriancolt]

If he is there I would take him. Big, fast and with good hands. I also like Brian Quick from Appalachian State.

Hill has come from an option offense but even when he has been thrown the ball he has dropped a fair few. I love Randle though/

Just watch the tape on both receivers, the thing i like about Randle is he always seems to have his feet moving as he is catching the ball. Watch the tape on Hill, he seems to quit striding out as he is catching the ball, which makes for a much easier tackle. Randle to me is always anticipating his next move right after the catch. I think too many ppl get caught up in size.

[coltnorth]

Randle is a more polished receiver at this point but has a lower ceiling. He isn't as big or fast as Hill but is more experienced. Will have more problems getting separation in NFL

[SafetyValve]

Here's some good info on Stephen Hill: http://www.football....ers?playerID=64

And Randle here: http://www.football....ers?playerID=55

These pages have all of their scouting reports.

[Restored]

I don't see why Hill would be gone by the 2nd. Mocks ive seen have him going into the 2nd.

[HyToCrItE]

Houston/San Francisco... I think he will land in one of those cities in the 1st.

Why isn't WR a big need??

Need meaning we do have WRs We do not have depth at NT TE a cover CB or OGs

[LJpalmbeacher]

I think WR & receiveing TE is a Big Need,especially since we will drafting a Franchise QB.
As of now we don't have any receiveing TE's and our best WR is getting up there in years and isn't that fast. Our only other established WR(Collie) is one concussion away from retirement.

I agree that WR and TE are among our biggest needs which, let's face it, are many. CB, OG and DT are some others.

The thing I'm trying to keep in mind is that this is a full re-build and we're looking at 1-2 off seasons to do it all and thank goodness with some REAL salary cap space next spring.

If Hill falls to #34 the we just gotta trust Grigson to take the BPA at a need position with whoever is on the board. If that is Stephen Hill I won't have any problem with it because his physical skills are excellent. And good coaching could really produce a great WR.

[INDYCOLTS18]

what do you guys think of jamell fleming in the third?

[BProland85]

I don't see why Hill would be gone by the 2nd. Mocks ive seen have him going into the 2nd.

I hope you're right cause I would love a Luck to Hill combo.

[Andy]

We shouldn't be taking a receiver in the 2nd if you ask me, but I'd like Hill if we had to pick one. The kid has talent with a lot of upside.

Well said....I have been talking up Hill for months....It would be nice to give Luck a large fast target. If Avery can stay healthy and is anywhere near as fast as he once was, this combo could definitely help spread the field and let luck nickle and dime defenses.

[INDYCOLTS18]

If it comes down to picking a receiver in the 2nd round, definitely stephen hill followed closely by alshon jeffery

[RGIII]

Between Wright, Hill, Jeffery, and Randle you'll probably have your choice of two or even three of those guys at the top of the second. That's not a bad group but WRs are still awfully hard to hit on. The real question will probably be who falls at CB to dissuade you from taking any of them.

[Luckitis]

Why not kill 2 birds with one stone and take WR/Return specialists Joe Adams from Arkansas.

Cause he's short.

[Luckitis]

So was Marivn Harrison for that matter..speed kills! By the way I was not sugggesting the Colts take him in the 2nd round I should have clarified that. He is projected in the 4th or 5th round. Which would free the Colts up to take a TE or DB in the 2nd was my thinking. He is a high value pick in the 4th or 5th round.

Marvin was 6'0, that's not short and around avg height for a WR. Hill is tall and very fast.

[Luckitis]

Adams is 5'11 with a 38 vert and a 4.42 40. What he might lose in height he gains in his vert and speed compared to Marvin. Hill is not a proven commodity and Jeffery's does not always bring his A game. Give me a player with a chip on his shoulder to prove something and a work ethic.
