Colts Draft

Recommended Posts

Ok up until now i have been a strong believer that the Colts would solely draft Defence and Houston would either trade their #1 for a ridiculous amount of picks (Falcons come to mind), or take a Qb.

 

Now lately i have been hearing that Houstons organization is almost locked in on Clowney just because of the presence of Luck in the division, i think its no secret, Luck is going to be a superstar...yet with the combination of Watt and Clowney the Texans form the best D front in the AFC arguably the NFL.

 

(I even did a little spying on the texans forum they seem to believe are Oline is so weak that their Dline can overrun Luck).

 

Anyways with this in mind and assuming Grigs and Co. are aware of this does this mean we draft Oline, cause the texans are clearly are biggest competition, or do we * the needs at D>>>??????

Clowney isn't gonna save the Texans like people are hyping him to do

Draft the man, they drafted Mario Williams to slow down Peyton, how'd that work out?

We're gonna dominate the AFC South regardless of Manziel, Clowney, Bridgewater, Brotles, or whoever else wanna step to us.

So sick of hearing about Clowney. I'm praying the Texans take him. Clowney isn't gonna stop Ty Hilton from being the Texan Burner. You'll still hear "Andrew goes deep to Hilton, TOUCHDOWN Colts"

Bring on all challengers, draft the entire Alabama defense for all I care, sick of people sleeping on us but hyping our division foes as if we not sitting as the current kings of the AFC south

:rantoff:

Sorry, my rant was directed towards the media not you

It's just sickening how all they're talking about is Manziel & Clowney. I'm tired of it. They hyped RG3 up then the moment he got hurt they threw him to the wayside. These athletes need to wake up & smell the apple juice

These people out here don't give 2 cahoots about. You're an entertainer to them. Let Manziel or Clowney be busts or get hurt, they'll see who still wanna hang with them. Manziel will see if Drake, Rick Ross & others still wanna hang out. Stuff is sickening!!!! Whatever happened to actually letting someone play a game before you threw hype at them?

:Gaah:

It's best to stick to what we want.... Why start countering moves when we are #1 in the division.. Let's just stick to what we do and we will continue to be on top.

Castonzo`s pass blocking, UGH! Cherilus wasn`t that much better.

We HAVE TO be Much better up the middle. Holmes will kick tail but he will have to have Help?

Pray for a Running game.

 

 If the BPA at 2 is a Pass Rusher, Corner, OR a LT we oughta take him. A good Rule.

Totally disagree about our OTs, but I respect your opinion. Biggest need is FS IMHO. But I would never disagree with taking a pure pass rusher.

Side note, did you guys happen to see the PFT article on the 2011 first round draft picks that won't be offered another year option? I think there were 10 of them. It shows that there's no sure thing in the draft, and (again, IMHO) we did well taking AC.

We've already played against some incredible defensive fronts with mixed results. We've played Houston when their defense was good; we've played against the Lions and their front 7; we've played against the Seahawks and Forty-Niners and came out with wins. Conversely, we lost to the Cardinals, Bengals, and Rams, who also have very good D-lines.

 

I would be a little worried about the Texans adding Clowney, but overall, I think that the QB position is the most important. All of the other AFC teams are currently lacking a solid QB and that puts us as the clear frontrunners, possibly for now.

Nothing that other teams are doing personnel-wise should influence the way the Colts build the roster. They should already be committed to putting together the best roster they can. Grigson isn't going to suddenly put more emphasis on offensive line just because the Texans draft Clowney. They already have the best defensive lineman in the game; if Grigson wasn't already paying attention, then we've got bigger problems than Clowney. I don't believe you build your team with a focus on beating another team, especially a team with great players. Great players are going to get theirs.

I totally agree. When you start drafting and signing players just to counter one team in your division you have already lost. For a lot of years the other three teams in the AFC south were drafting and signing players with stopping Manning in mind. It didn't work. I think now that Grigs has some what built the Colts to what he wanted he will now just take the best players when the time comes.
