  1. Then there is the conspiracy theory that "Maybe he is doing this in part to turn some teams off intentionally, so that he drops a few slots so that the Colts could make a reasonable trade up for him." Well how would this work? First, picks 1-3 would all have to be QBs without trades and I think that is very possible. Then Arizona (who doesn't need a QB and all the mocks say they will pick MHJ) trades their pick to another team that wants a QB. Well, that COULD happen. Then pick #5 is the chargers. They need a WR and Harbaugh (who knows MHJ well), will have to pick someone else. I think that's unlikely. And I don't think they will trade with us. So who's next? The Giants. If the Chargers by some miracle picks someone other than MHJ, I think the Giants COULD be a trade partner. Would the Giants pick someone else if they keep the pick? They could use a WR too. Next is the Titans and there is no way that they trade with us or not pick MHJ if he is there. Tantalizing to think about, but still very unlikely in my opinion.
  2. We already have a 6'3 pass catching high end. His name is Kylen Granson. With Woods and probably Ogletree coming back I really don't think we will pick Bowers. He's not Kelce or Gronk. Instead we need a dynamic WR, CB or edge for #15.
  3. Unless we trade up because our owner wants him that badly.
  4. I have NO PROBLEM re-signing JT. AS LONG AS HE IS HEALTHY.
  5. Shaq got his big money second contract, so I'm afraid we're stuck with him for now. He is EXACTLY the reason why we are not paying Taylor. We don't know if Jonathan is the same elite player and we don't want to make the same mistake of paying a guy with 1) an injury from which he may never return to his original form or 2) an increased tendency to be re-injured again and again.
  6. Next year will be 25 years running this contest and I NEVER WON IT!
  7. Well ... THE RESULTS ARE IN!! And the winner of the 2023 Dr T Colts Draft Contest is ... Solid84 with 12.5 points!! Congrats! Solid84 correctly chose no trade of #4 and picked Richardson, Brents, Rush, Scott and Witt Tied for second this year - both with 11 points - are Archer and Stitches. Archer also picked no trade of #4, Richardson, Brents, Rush, Scott and Witt, but not quite slotted as well as Solid84. Dang!! Stitches (who was winning after round 3) wound up correctly choosing no trade of #4 and picked Richardson, Brents, Rush, and Witt, but missed out on Daniel Scott (although did incorrectly pick Tyler Scott, the WR from Cincy!! Oh no!) Anyway, congrats again to Solid84 and we will all try again next year ...
  8. A lot of people guessed that the Colts would not trade the #4 pick and many also picked Anthony Richardson there at #4 as an A, B or C selection. But so far, two contestants stand out: Stitches picked no trade and Richardson and Brents as A picks at #4 and #35 (although we traded out of 35). Anyhow Stitches leads after day two with 8 points. However, Craigerb picked no trade and was also correct with all three picks: Richardson, Downs and Brents, although the points were not maximized due to slotting with 7 points (according to the rules). Wow! Regardless, I think that everyone must admit that this is impressive! Let's see if anyone can catch up today! There are many possible picks ahead. Good luck everybody!
  9. Chad is correct when he says: The "right round" truly means "right original spot". So, anything beyond the original spot will not get the full points rewarded. It may not be the poster's fault Ballard traded back but if it is not the original spot, it is what it is if you don't get the full credit.
  10. Will the Colts trade the first-round pick? No Round 1 - #4 A. Will Levis, KY, QB B. CJ Stroud, OSU, QB C. Anthony Richardson, FL, QB Round 2 - #35 A. Kelee Ringo, GA, CB B. Will McDonald, IowaSt, DE C. Hendon Hooker, Tenn, QB Round 3 - #79 A. Blake Freeland, BYU, OT B. Zach Harrison, OSU, DE C. Cedric Tillman, Tenn, WR Round 4 - #106 A. Nick Herbig, Wisc, LB B. Jonathan Mingo, Miss, WR Round 5 - #138 A. YaYa Diaby, Lsville, DE B. Julius Brents, KSt, CB Round 5 - #162 A. Zach Kuntz, OldDom, TE B. Jalen Redmond, OK, DT Round 5 - #176 A. Andrei Iosivas, Princeton, WR B. Braeden Daniels, Utah, OT Round 7 - #221 A. Cory Trice Jr, Purdue, CB B. McClendon Curtis, Chattanooga, OG Round 7 - #236 A. Anthony Bradford, LSU, OG B. Devonnsha Maxwell, Chattanooga, DT
  11. Leaf was getting drunk in Mexico when he should have been getting ready for his first NFL season. Levis may not be the best QB in this year's draft, but he's not Leaf. And goody goody Wentz and Reich can keep reciting their New Testament Bible quotes. The quote on the bicep of Will Levis is strictly Old Testament. The more I think about it, the more I am convinced that Levis will be our pick. And I don't have a problem with that.
  12. Looking at them head to head, Levis was way better than Richardson. I would not be disappointed if we had our choice for either and picked Levis. Remember that Dan Marino was cocky too and fell in the draft because of it.
  13. For the most part, I agree with Stitches, except I would swap OT with QB.
  14. Private work outs are for us to see what a QB can do: does he have touch? can he throw the fade? can he throw the check down without throwing 100 miles per hour? What is his footwork like? Can he throw the ball overhead, sidearm etc? We already know he (Levis and Richardson) can throw the bomb pretty well. Top 30 visits are to see the QB's football IQ looking at film and drawing plays out on the white board. Can he recognize the mistakes he made on his own film? Can he tell us why he did a certain thing on a certain play? Can he go through progressions? What does he see pre snap? Any visit is also about seeing how the QB acts socially and what are his priorities in life. Is he willing to learn or is he a narcissist? Are hunting, video games, women, money or whatever else distractions from film study? What is his work ethic like? Does his teammates like him? Is he a leader or a tyrant or a dummy? When all of these questions are answered, we then have to decide if he is worth drafting at the slot we have. Should we move up, stay put or trade back and get more picks? It's going to be interesting this year, that's for sure.
  15. I agree that the Colts could really benefit from another high caliber WR, but it would be better to obtain an established vet this year. Even the best rooks in this draft are not good enough to start and make a huge impact in 2023 IMHO. CB is a need. So is OL and both of those (along with TE) are quite deep this year, so they will be targeted in this draft and probably in FA as well. I would rather draft the best QB we can get this year and try our hardest to trade up to get Marvin Harrison Jr as our first pick next year.
