Rookies we DON'T want in the AFC South

[Lucky Colts Fan]

With the Jags and Titans picking in the top 5, again, and the Titans having two 1st rounders, we could see a few blue-chip players added to our division.

 

I know some people want to compete against the best, iron sharpens iron and all that, but are there any players you DON'T want to see the Jags, Titans, or Texans draft?

 

I hope Garrett doesn't fall to the Jags or Titans.  I also hope a QB like Watson doesn't fall to the Texans.

Garrett, Solomon Thomas, Fournette

Fournette for sure

Hopefully our Run-D is better this year, but yeah, I don't want to see Fournette or Mixon, especially behind that Titans OLine.

I'm pretty sure the Titans aren't using a high pick on a RB.

Fournette, Cook, OJ Howard, Mixon, Kamara, Hooker, Garret, the TE from Miami, Tim Williams.

Watson isn't that good. I hope the Texans draft him.

I don't think he's an exceptional quarterback but he's better than what they have and brings a winning mentality. 

 

I'd be worried about any upgrade they make at quarterback since they beat us to the division last year with a QB that even the Browns dont want!

Exactly!!! I'd love to see that personally. There is likely going to be a player who has alot more value available to them, but if they wanna reach just in hopes of finding thier guy...please do!!! Watson has some potential, I won't deny that but he also still needs a fair amount of work and as I've said a few other times the Texans haven't neccasarily shown the ability to develop QBs.

[DaColts85]

I hope they draft busts and are picking at the top next year as well.

His deep ball accuracy is terrible and he has trouble throwing to his left. IMO another spread option QB with inflated stats. I hope he`s successful, but have my doubts.

If one of our rivals takes Howard, we better take Reddick to counter lol. But I also would add Fournette to that list. Especially if he goes to the Jags. MJD still gives me nightmares.

I'm not too afraid of Fournette. I think the Titans will get Corey Davis or Mike Williams though. And I don't think a corner on our roster would be able to stop him lol.

Luckily this is a deep CB class lol.

Welp, we have to play against Fournette twice a year now.

I feel like Corey Davis is going to be the Reggie Wayne for Tennessee.

 

And the Texans offense just got dangerous.  A dual-threat QB like Watson with Hopkins, Fuller, and Miller for targets...  That's a lot of speed on the field, probably makes the Hooker pick look even better.

Good thing we drafted Hooker!  Although, watching Hooker try to tackle Fournette might make a few Colts fans cringe this year...

I kind of want to see Geathers put him on his back...

Yeah, hopefully Hooker playing center field means Geathers and Green become box-safeties like Kam Chancellor and be more involved in the run game.

I would hope with the revamped front 7 Fournette does not see Hooker that much to have a worry.  Fingers crossed on that!

Watson's weakness, turnover via interceptions. He had 17 in this last college season, and a good 9-10 of them all on Deshaun.  We might have drafted Watson's Kryptonite in Malik Hooker as well. Malik Hookers specialty, turnovers via interceptions.

I was watching a video earlier on Ohio State vs. Clemson in the College Playoffs.  Clemson stayed away from him the whole game, and he still flew to the boundaries to pick off Watson.  Twice, I think.  Clemson won the game, but Hooker got the better of Watson.

 

If we find a solid CB2 to play this cover-1/cover-3 with Hooker playing center field...

The only thing I worry about with Hooker, and especially against an offense with fast skill players like Houston, is the outside run/pass game.  If Hooker doesn't take good angles or misses a tackle against outside runs and screen passes, someone like Hopkins, Fuller, Miller or even Watson could go to the house.

 

The way I see it, Hooker protects the front 7/8 from letting anything get by him in the pass game, and the front 7/8 protects Hooker from having to tackle.  If that works, we have ourselves a dominant D reminiscent of Baltimore during the Ed Reed era.

Let us see how the rest of this draft pans out.  I feel Ballard isn't going to put up with teams 'punching the Colts in the mouth' anymore  (or weakness for a long time) on runs, and isn't relying on a single high deep free safety to make those run stuffing tackles in the game.

I hope the Jags don't get Lamp or Robinson.
