Like how we didn’t agree on things in the past. However this year we’ve been on par with things. That being said I’m with you. I can’t wait to see our defense as a whole. The defensive projection truly deserves its own thread. I would like to know how you feel about our new front 7. 

Funny how that works huh?

 

Honestly, I don't know what to think yet, I've not really seen them together so it's very hard to draw any conclusions, good or bad at this time. I'm kind of nervous about them with the loss of Hankins.

Likewise, but Hankins still remains unsigned. Find that kind of odd...

Yeah I was wondering about that as well. There's gotta be a red flag somewhere. 

I think the issue with Hankins is...   that he likely is waiting for a better offer...   and he's willing to wait to get one...

 

And he's likely also hoping that a team that has playoff level hopes suffers a key injury on the DL which might make them sweeten their offer.

 

This wait feels financially driven to me...

This is a tough  (but fun) question because we have a lot of areas where we are going to be hoping to see some guys surprise us. If I had to pick a position group I'd probably just say o-line because we have added enough numbers on the oline over the last few years, now it's just time to see if those number added up to a solid o-line finally. Next could literally be the whole defense. I'm very excited to see how it looks towards the end of camp. Lastly, if I had to pick a player it would probably be Wilkens. He has the stats and high level of competition, but will he earn his way to a starting role?

Mewhort, Smith, Slauson, Howard, Haeg, Goode. If the right side of the O-line shakes out well, the Colts will be a force to be reckoned with in 2018. The depth (when the inevitable injuries come) should make fans happy.

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

      By Moosejawcolt · Posted

      That has always been my issue going back to the Polian years. They preferred undersized players to fit this scheme. That was great when they had a lead and played indoors. The problem  is that teams started running the ball to keep Peyton on the bench. Plus, u get in bad weather and on grass, their speed is negated and they are just a bunch of undersized players getting blown off the ball. I am in favor of building a team that can play in any environment and that can run various schemes. I see flexibility with the offence, however the D is the same old. That's why I think this is an important draft defensively. Will the Colts stray from their previous tendancies of drafting players that fit the Seattle scheme or will they deviate and say draft a man corner? Last year we were all on the edge of our seats when a trade was made at 3. Will we get our qb at 4? We were all on pins and needles till they made that pick. This draft has that same excitement for me. At 15 will Ballard and company do something different? This team needs a play maker on D and I contend that is their biggest need. I don't believe they get that player moving back.  Sure u may get him at 15 but if u really want a playmaker, this just might be the year to say move up and get a guy like Mirchell and Latu who may fall because of the medical. I am not in favor of getting a wr or te. Richardson, if he is the guy, should deliver explosive plays with our current roster.  Jot a fan of Gus and this scheme, but I really don't think he has a lot to work with and Ballard kind of eluded to that in his post season pressers.

      It’s officially over: Luck says he will never return.

      By 2006Coltsbestever · Posted

      The move happened before the 1984 season. To put in perspective how great Luck was here, here are the top 3 QBs over 40 seasons here win wise: Regular Season as a starter 1. Peyton Manning = 141 wins 2. Andrew Luck = 53 wins 3. Jim Harbaugh = 20 wins   Post Season as a starter 1. Peyton Manning = 9 wins (won the SB in 2006) 2. Andrew Luck = 4 wins 3. Jim Harbaugh = 2 wins   Luck had 33 more wins than Jim did and 2 more playoff wins than Jim did. Luck is so far ahead of any QB (not named Peyton) regarding wins in the Regular Season and Post Season that it is laughable.

      What is Chris Ballard MOST LIKELY to do in the 1st Round of the 2024 NFL Draft?

      I wonder whether there's anything to his reporting. Either way, I think he'd be better at safety / nickel. Even if the Colts view him as a boundary corner, I think they view corner as a Day 2 position.    DeJean definitely helped himself on his testing. I don't think the 40 time was concerning, even if I wasn't blown away by it. His explosive numbers were very good; if you watch his high school basketball clips, you'll see his explosiveness. And like stitches said, the Colts love explosive DBs, maybe even more than they love fast DBs.    And yeah, I side-eye any timed speeds when they don't happen at the Combine. There's hand timing, some surfaces are different, I've read that some tracks have a slight grade to them, etc. I don't know how they prepare all the 40 tracks, but I know that everyone that runs at the Combine gets the same surface, same conditions, etc.
