He recently declared for this years draft and I think if the Colts pass on Barkley and want to wait in the draft for a back, the I think Mark Walton would be a great pickup in the 4th or 5th rd. He broke his leg early this year so he hasn't put up big numbers but watching him last year he showed great vision patience and explosion. Him and Mack together in the backfield would be a strong duo.

Agreed. When I watch him, he reminds me of Barry Sanders in the way he evades defenders by setting them up, making them think he doesn't see them. That and his ability to make insane lateral cuts. I just wish he was a little bigger, but can definitely play. Wouldnt be upset if we wait on a running back early on and pick this guy up. I love saquon Barkley, but I think we should use the early pick on someone like Bradley Chubb, quenton Nelson, or minkah Fitzpatrick  and get a running back later.

If I were the GM I agree with you that would be the route I'd go. Hopefully trade down slightly and still pick up one of Chubb, Key, Nelson or McGlinchey around pick 8-10. Then if we did land Walton Mack, Turbin and him would be a good backfield.

      Colts have the 15th pick in the draft. (MERGE)

      By Moosejawcolt · Posted

      Then begs the question. Do u want to say draft a MJH at 4 and turn around in 4 years or would u say draft Turner and pay him 30mill in 4 years? All day every day for the franchise rush end. I am not a big believer in 30 mill for a wr. Reid is a fantastic coach and look what he did with Hill.

      I literally just posted that clip, it's where the conversation about QBs started.

      Ballard pre-draft presser

      By richard pallo · Posted

      Funny you brought this up.  I just listened to an interview Ballard did today with Rich Eisen.  He asked him if he has given any thought on how many quarterbacks will be taken before our pick and how many does he think.  He said sure we go through those evaluations.  It helps us with for planning purposes.  He asked him how many.  4 or 5 or 6?   He laughed out loud at 6.  He said Rich if it’s 6 we will be so excited.  Let’s hope so.  He also said the draft board is not yet set.  Won’t be until the night before the draft.  He also said he has had multiple conversations with other GM’s concerning the draft.  Preparing themselves for opportunities that could take place.  And they will continue up until the draft starts.  He said trade conversations won’t really materialize until you are within three picks of any trade.  Giving you time to finalize it.  Interesting interview.  Oh he pretty much ruled out moving up for Harrison.   Going up into the top of the draft would be very costly for him he said.  Thinks he’s a great talent but he thinks he’s pretty much out of our reach.
