Bold predictions for the draft

[backshoulderfade]

Lets play a game. Make 1 bold prediction for the draft at the end of the month. If you are wrong then nobody cares because it's a game. If you are right then you can claim to have foresight

 

I'll kick it off.

 

Joe Mixon will go in the late first round.

[twfish]

A quarterback won't be taken until the 20's

[SP_21]

Dalvin Cook goes Round 2

[Smonroe]

80% of this forum will hate the Colts 2nd round pick.

60% will disagree with the 1st round pick.

[Track Guy]

For the first time in basically forever, there won't be an O-lineman taken in the top 10. 

[WarGhost21]

Marshon Lattimore and Gareon Conley are the first 2 CBs off the board, the first time in history that the first two CBs taken are from the same school

[ColtsArmy84]

Ballard makes a grigson type move and drafts TE OJ Howard with our 15th pick. Looking for a Travis Kelse type guy.

Hooker will go early too.  I wonder when was the last time three DBs from the same school go in the first round?

Is that really a bold prediction

Last I remember was 2002. Miami CBs Phillip Buchanon (17) and Mike Rumph (27), and S Ed Reed (24) all went in the first round. Also on that 2001 Miami team were 13 other future first rounders including: Antrel Rolle, Sean Taylor, Clinton Portis, Willis McGahee, Andre Johnson, Jeremey Shockey, Frank Gore, and Vince Wilfork. That team was stacked to say the least.

[BProland85]

Indianapolis will draft at least 2 CBs and 2 LBs.

[Coffeedrinker]

For the first time since 1996 a guy from Kutztown will be drafted.

 

 

[stitches]

Colts draft at least one of every single one of those: OLB, ILB, CB, RB, TE

[KB]

Colts will pick one offensive player in the first three rounds.

[Defjamz26]

Reuben Foster falls to the Colts pick.

[James Ducheteau]

Obi one Melwallifouilo will go in the first

[gnet550]

Christian McCaffery is taken higher than Dalvin Cook

[ColtsArmy84]

Alvin Kamara drafted near the end of round 1

[TDewar1987]

The Colts wont have a first round pick.

Are you saying This is our most desperate hour and he's our only hope?

[chad72]

Patriots manage to get into the first 2 rounds without having a first or second round pick right now.

The chargers trade Philip Rivers to the Browns for their 12th overall draft pick and their 5th round pick. The Chargers select Mitch Trubisky with the 12th overall pick.

I would be very surprised if they DID NOT get in the first two rounds in this draft. They will probably trade one of their picks next year to help them get into the first two rounds.

Only if the Chargers take Osweiler  from the Browns, lol

[Colts1324]

HAHA. That would be hilarious!

I would say there is a 50-50 shot that happens. We have a huge hole at corner and need a ILB and OLB. Corner and OLB are two of the deepest positions in this drafft.

Thats the part I dont understand at all. Its like team building but backwards, and if so, I can't imagine how a Qb or Olinemen not getting pick top 10. So there is 2 safetys that are top 10 picks? Really? I dont see or understand it but...

Now we can build the team, the right way with the remaining picks.

[csmopar]

I'm not sure how bold this is, but I think you'll see the Colts pick up 2 CBs in the first 4 rounds, with a DE/ILB or DT as the other picks.

Please lawd....

[GoColtsGo5150]

This is more of a wish than perhaps a prediction but either Jamal Adams or Malik Hooker both fall out of the top 10 and one of them falls to 15.

What's not to understand?  The quarterbacks and lineman aren't that good.

[pgt_rob]

Colts first round pick will be met by fans with a "Who!?".

U mean in the entire country? O didnt say Pac12, SEC,ACC. I said in the entire country, No one can find an NFL Starting QB, or Darn LT thats worthy of a top 10? So u mean whoever is picked (2-7 round), and if they are a QB or Olineman, that means they totally suck because no other QB/olineman was worth a top 10 selection. 

 

Whatever scout can't find the best QB/olinemen, while they have a top 10 pick and your team needs one of these positions badly, they need to be fired because many people have done more with less (high picks in the draft). 

 

And you might be one of them.I guess if a team needs a LT, just sign former Colt Charlie Johnson or Gosder Cherilus because they are much better than any player in the draft, even though you have the entire country to choose from.

 

I think its bad scouting not bad players. So what happened, did all the olineman all of a sudden say hay, I feel like taking the season off? Tell Russel Wilson that he wasn't worth a top 10 pick, tell Center Travis Frederick that he wasn't worth a 1st round selection. Guess what, teams that missed/passed on these players when you needed these position of need filled, tell me if they still have the same GM when those players were selected. Like I said, goes back to scouting and player evaluation, the good teams has these boxes checked, regardless of what mock draft/people say.
