I was a bit surprised to read this... The Colts Have the Easiest Strength of Schedule for 2020 https://www.stampedeblue.com/2020/5/4/21247301/colts-have-the-easiest-strength-of-schedule-for-2020

Why would they want to extend his contract? It was reported recently, he was on the trading block... and even if he's not traded, he is under contract for either one or two years (it they exercise option)

Who knows? Maybe they will get rid of Brissett?

Wow. Great highlight reel. Windsor is a force inside. I was surprised to see all the sacks he gets on the tape.

Another interesting find... CBSSports Draft Grades gives Blackmon an A rating: WR Michael Pittman, USC B+ 241*RB Jonathan Taylor, Wisconsin A- 385*S Julian Blackmon, Utah A https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/colts-draft-picks-2020-nfl-draft-order-grades-by-team-indianapolis-round-4-7-selections/ and here is a link to all their grades for the entire draft: https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/draft-tracker/

https://www.pff.com/news/college-football-underrated-players-2019-season PFF also rated Blackmon as most underrated players of 2019 S JULIAN BLACKMON, UTAH The Utes may have lost out on the Pac-12 Championship and a berth in the College Football Playoff, but the season as a whole was full of positives and breakout performances for the program — with the biggest being the play of Julian Blackmon. After featuring almost exclusively at outside corner throughout his college career and grading out rather poorly, Blackmon made the move to free safety this year and was one of the best in the country. Among 198 players with at least 150 snaps at free safety, Blackmon ranked fourth in PFF grade, at 89.8. On his 324 coverage snaps at free safety, Blackmon allowed just five catches for 63 yards, adding three interceptions and forcing five incompletions. That paved the way for a 30.4 passer rating allowed. Even when a run play was called by the opposition, Blackmon found ways to make some stellar plays while playing deep in the secondary, with five run stops, a tackle for loss and just one missed tackle on 24 attempts. Not only was Blackmon the highest-graded Ute defender this year, with an overall grade of 89.6, but he was the second highest-graded defensive player Utah has had in the PFF College era — behind only Marcus Williams‘ 2016 campaign. In PFF’s wins above replacement metric (WAR), Blackmon was among the five most valuable players on this Utah team altogether. That’s pretty good, considering he gave up 786 yards and a passer rating of 131.7 at cornerback in 2018.

Good point, but I doubt either would suck

One thing I like about Pittman and Taylor is their outstanding production. Pittman 2017: 23 receptions - 404 yards - 17.6 average - 2 tds 2018: 41 receptions - 758 yards - 18.5 average - 6 tds 2019: 101 receptions - 1275 yards - 12.6 average -11 tds Taylor 2017: 299 attempts - 1977 yards - 6.6 average - 13 tds 2018: 307 attempts - 2194 yards - 7.1 average - 16 tds 2019: 320 attempts - 2003 yards - 6.3 average - 21 tds https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/michael-pittman-jr-1.html https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/jonathan-taylor-1.html

I agree. What a great combination that would make.

Watching his tape, he is relentless. Looks a lot like JJ Watt. Iowa moved him inside and out. Just watching his highlights...Epenesa looks huge in size. Extreme effort player. I would think he would be a good fit for our D We all have our opinions. Personally, my top choice at pick 34 is Epanesa.

PFT’s second round mock draft https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/04/24/pfts-second-round-mock-draft-4/ 33. Bengals: Kristian Fulton, CB, LSU. 34.

Seahawks (from Kansas City): Zack Moss, RB, Utah. It's kind of funny... Kristian Fulton, CB, LSU, the first player they have coming off the board (to Cincinnati) is listed as most comparable to Quincy Wilson. Imagine Ballard picking him? https://www.nfl.com/prospects/kristian-fulton?id=32194655-4c73-3491-274a-7b3b8a1d4f92

I was wondering if they would pull the trigger on D'Andre Swift if he was still available in 2nd round? Or Dobbins perhaps?
