I’m with ya..
I'm not sure we’re going WR at 15 either. I think we could go DE, and it’s possible we could go CB as well. Gosh, I love Mitchell and really like Arnold as well. And if we trade back I would be fine with McKinstry or a DE on defense or one of the 2nd tier of WRs that could be there in the 20’s. So many options.
I keep reminding myself, every pick could produce a surprise, because I think Ballard will have so many options to choose from.
Im also not sure Ballard will use all 7 rounds. He finished in 5 rounds in his first draft 2017, and he finished in 6 rounds in 2019. Maybe he uses all 7 rounds, but I’m not confident we will.
One week from tonight.
My Final Mock Draft
15. Brock Bowers, TE, 6’4 245 Lbs, Georgia - Blue Chip Prospect. Rare combination of acceleration, speed and body control. Hands-catcher operating with good coordination and technique. With Pittman on the outside Bowers will control the middle of the field and seams. AR Will develop much quicker into a top 10 QB with Bowers as his TE.
46. TJ Tampa, CB, 6’1, 190 Lbs, Iowa State - Elite physical traits. Plays with good positioning throughout routes. Very good in press Coverage and Zone. Expect him to compete in training camp and be named a starter.
82. Calen Bullock, S, 6’2 190 lbs, USC - Elite physical traits. He has the range to play single-high safety, the athleticism to line up over the slot and the ball skills to chalk up impressive on-ball production. Expect him to compete in training camp for the starting S position.
117. Tez Walker, WR, 6’2 195 Lbs, UNC - Elite speed with very good body control. Career average of 30.7 yards on touchdown receptions. Gives us very good depth and competition with Pierce.
151. Grayson Murphy, DE, 6’3 260 Lbs, UCLA - Shows impressive quickness and change of direction to help turn speed to power as a rusher. Good depth.
191. Keaton Bills, G, 6’5 320 Lbs, Utah - Cerebral player, quick to react to twists and stunts up front. Very good depth.
I’d take Bird off and replace him with AJ Foyt mostly because of what most of Bird did was in Boston and Foyt is the greatest star in the sport Indianapolis was known for a long time. Still I’d agree you are splitting hairs picking between the two and can’t go wrong with either.

Soundtrack #13......
I've been waiting for so long now I've finally found someone to stand by me
We saw the writing on the wall as we felt this magic fantasy
Now with passion in our eyes there's no way we could disguise secretly
So we take each other's hand cause we seem to understand the urgency
Just remember you're the one thing I can't get enough of
So I'll tell you one thing this could be love because....

Soundtrack #12.....
Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When your chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best
