  1. We definitely need another LB. Wouldn't be surprised to see a second or third rounder go there.

    With the questions on Jelani Woods and the very real possibility that Drew Ogletree won't be back, I don't think we'll get rid of Mo-Allie Cox. I think I'd love it if we were able to get Cade Stover from Ohio State in the third or fourth. 

    And I think right now the chances are good we'll trade back. 

    The wild cards are if someone unexpected slides to 15 --- Brock Bowers, Nabor, maybe even Jared Verse...

    I believe you are setting yourself up for disappointment yet again. 

    Ballard has signed big guys to big contracts. It's just mostly been our guys. Quentin Nelson, Shaq (and he would have made the HOF if he didn't get hurt), JT, Phillip Rivers, Matt Ryan. And he's stretched for big trades, Deforest Buckner (who he also extended with a big contract) and even alas, Carson Wentz.

    This year he's got to spend money --- or lose --- big FAs. Pittman, Grover, Kenny Moore...

    You really think this team is garbage.  One more win than last year.  Only one win away from home.  When Peyton joined the Colts the roster was horrible.  This roster is far from horrible.   You and the others can expect mediocrity if you want.  I’m not going too.  The AFC South is not a powerhouse division.  We clearly have a better roster than Houston or Tennessee.  The Jags have a 1st place schedule now.  Let’s see how that plays out.  All teams have turnover too and many times not for the best.  That said I actually think our roster has improved over last years.  No old quarterbacks with cement in their shoes.  I think our OL will improve over last years.  That shouldn’t be too hard to do.  JT is back and Leonard as well.  New FG kicker and Sanchez returns.  Gus returns with a strong defense.  This team is not garbage.  This team should be a lot better than 5 or 6 wins.   Even with a rookie quarterback.  Not just any rookie quarterback but we have AR5.  The best quarterback in the draft right?

    That's not true about the roster when Peyton came on. 

    At least not on offense. He joined a team with bookend tackles --- Tarik Glenn and Adam Meadows --- Marvin Harrison, Marshall Faulk, Marcus Pollard. pretty good team. And we still had growing pains. So I wouldn't expect a winning season next year. Lots of work to do...

    Hull will probably be the Colts version of the Chargers' Ekelar. 

    that was the first thing I thought when I saw his videos. we'll have to see if his speed plays at this level, but man, he looked good.

    Went from a very good OL, to a complete joke in 1 year. Yea, I think it was coaching as well..

    The biggest reason for the crash was on Ballard. And I love Ballard. But he let too many guys go and the unit collapsed. He let Fisher go and we didn't have anyone ready. He let Glowinski go thinking Pinter would step in seamlessly. And there was a third guy he let go. Name escapes me. I guess he figure having 3 big time player would carry the unit. But OL play like 5 fingers. And we suddenly only had 3. From that standpoint I think we still have to comb remaining free agents for help at guard...

  6. He definitely can run and the catch the ball. Sounds like's had some injuries. And Miami fell off the map this year. I read that Mallory ran the fastest 40 among TEs at the combine. He looks damn good to me. I like Kylen, but he really hasn't fit that pass-catcher TE role yet. This guy looks like he could do it...

    Ok….   I’ll be the fly in the punch bowl. 
     

    Freeland had a terrible Senior Bowl week.   Pushed all over the field.   He’s in serious, serious need of an NFL strength and weight program. 

     

    I think he’s a year away from contributing much.  

     

    yeah. I saw that he wasn't great in the one-on-ones at the Senior Bowl. But if you look up BYU offense vs defenses, you get a better look. He's very athletic and AWARE. One of the things we were horrible at last year was dealing with stunts. This kid sees them and responds to them. I think he looks good. Does he need time and strength, probably. But he can play. He's sooo tall you wonder if rushers who can reallly dip in the NFL will give him trouble. But I like him.

    I know others were hoping for Dawand, but I just didn't see us going that way after Zach Banner way back in 2017...

  8. He looks pretty damn good to me. Don't know if the multiple-move routes will work as well in the pros, but man. He's quick, he gets open, he catches the ball and he's tough as hell. I saw him take a couple of HUGE shots over the middle in his tapes. Got back up. He's also very feisty.

    He doesn't seem to have the ultimate take-the-top off speed to be a TD threat on every catch, BUT... he looks good to me.

    This offence needs a vertical burner. U have Downs and the tight ends. Pierce is pretty fast and great at 5o 50 balls.?However, still need a burner who teams need to respect. Can't stack the box.

    I like Tyler Scott from cindy but I don't know if we'll draft 2 WR.

    He can get deep

  10. I hope I'm totally wrong about this. He seems like a really nice kid. But I just watched game vids from him playing against TCU and Baylor and dang, he's a pass interference waiting to happen maybe he'll be OK in zone. I know he's tall an long and a big hitter... he also is a 4.53 guy at corner. Don't know. Like I said I hope I'm way off base
