  1. I'm a big fan of Mitchell stitches, he has the H/W/S and is a very good route runner. The route running almost has me higher on him than BTJ, because he is nearly as athletic than him. But I just wonder about the effort. Seen alot of tape of him not making really any effort at all on some plays. Just concerning for me because I really like him as a player.
  2. I agree, I don't think he'll fall to 15, but with Chicago signing Keenan Allen, there is potential for him to be within range to trade up a few spots with the 15th and 46th pick, something I would have no problem with. Unfortunately with Ballard, its unlikely. Yes the draft is deep with WRs, but there is a drop off after Rome to BTJ, Mitchell, etc.
  3. I hope not, Dayo and Buckner can (are) both be really good together. Dayo as the LDE that can kick inside on pass plays, Buckner at 3-tech. Buckner’s next contract is going to cost a fortune though. Not sure we’ll be picking up Paye’s 5th year option though. Brings drafting a DE into play this year in Day 1 or 2.
  4. My sense is Ballard will want Cross to play this year at SS. And Harrison as backup. And we eventually sign a vet FS. Ballard traded up into the 3rd round to take Cross, I get the feeling he thinks Cross is ready now and wants to see a return on the investment made. Could be completely misreading if though!
  5. Just noticed the Bills signed Mike Edwards, who I believe the Colts had him round for a visit.
  6. In the way we predominately play Cover 3 single high safety, which is a lot less common in today’s NFL. I don’t have the interview but I remember Bradley recently speaking about the difficulty in finding a Center fielder that has the speed and range to play the role. And I don’t see someone in the draft that could come in and start either. Hence why I suggested Simmons and Diggs could be the best options.
  7. I’m really interested in seeing what Ballard does with the FS position, given how important the position is in Bradley’s defense. That’s under the assumption that he won’t want to have Thomas as the starter given Thomas’ struggles and subsequent benching last season. And also Cross then struggling too, who is more of a SS imo anyway. Just wonder, or maybe hoping, that we might be seeing Justin Simmons calling in for a visit in the coming weeks. To see if he still is moving well enough at 30. I reckon there is enough cap space to sign him by the looks of things. Diggs could be another option. I don’t know do I see a solution in the draft to be honest, there are not many FS options and the good ones are split and not single high.
  8. Think that’s everyone from the 2023 roster that’s either re-signed or signed somewhere else.
  9. I like Cedric Grey too, possibly could be there in round 3. Good size, length and athletic. Cooper, Wilson and Nubin are my favourites in round 2.
  10. My sense is that the Colts have spoken with KC on trade compensation and Sneed’s reps in a contract. And they have parked negotiations at this point. Chappell is probably right, situation is fluid.
  11. Yeah Nubin looks a good shout as a BPA in the second round. But just wonder has he the speed to play as a single high FS. One of my favourites.
  12. Understood, but I just don’t get the sense that these reporters truely have good sources, or sources at all. If they did have contact with people in the building, I think we would have heard about Flacco or Davis beforehand. With that being said, I would be surprised if Ballard didn’t discuss a possible trade.
  13. I love how the whole of Colts Twitter have convinced themselves we’re signing Sneed because some fella called “Captain Colt” told them so. 🤣
  14. They probably like Mo as he is their best in-line blocker. Ogletree and Woods have showed a small bit of a potential but right now given their situations I don’t think the Colts can put all their eggs in that basket. I think if they cut Mo it’ll be after the preseason games if they think they have a good enough blocking tight end to take over.
  15. Shaping up to be like most other off-season under Ballard. Re-sign our own, few mid-tier and min vet signings. Build through the draft. Maybe this year we make the playoffs. But if not, and we have the same issues as last season, you’d have to think where we’re going with Ballard and his roster construction philosophy.
  16. Howard could interest Ballard if he thinks there is another year in him. Kind of like when he signed Rhodes.
  17. And Quandre Diggs gave his post the lookie eyes. Quandre Diggs would be my preferred signing at FS, so that would be cool.
  18. I'm not sure does anybody outside the organisation have sources. Nobody had the Raekwon Davis deal. It's easy saying they are going to re-sign their own and sign top-tier FAs. If a online account is releasing information beforehand on lesser known/mid tier FA deals, then those might be worth reading in to.
  19. I see were re-signing Ronnie Harrison. I'm OK with our situation at SS with Cross and Harrison. I thought Cross was good at SS when given the oppertunity, struggled against HOU in the last game, but that was at FS. But don't see much drop off from Blackmon to Cross. Harrsion is a solid backup. I'd like to sign a vet FS though.
