Using Fanspeak: 1. Terrion Arnold (CB) 2. Malachi Corley (WR) 3. Jeremiah Trotter Jr. (LB) 4. Dadrion Taylor-Demerson (S) 5. Mohamed Kamara (DE) 6. Isaiah Davis (RB) 7. Nick Gargiulo (G/C)

Free agents don't want to come to Indianapolis. That's a fact. We've seen it multiple times in the Colts and Pacers history.

Need playmakers at premium positions in this draft. We double dip in rounds 1-2 at WR. 1. Brian Thomas (WR) 2. Malachi Corley (WR) 3. Kamren Kinchens (FS) 4. Beaux Limmer (G/C) 5. Tyrice Knight (LB) 6. Isaiah Davis (RB) 7. Tory Taylor (P)

Very high on Beaux Limmer myself. Believe we can get him in the 4th round. 6'5' 302 lbs, 39 reps on the bench. Can be a good RG and C.

How did he make the pro-bowl, is my question. Career 8 TDs, 7 INTs? Seems to not only be very average, but also an extremely small sample size.

Thoughts are some good ones? Here are the ones that I'm fairly high on, not necessarily in any round/pick chronological order. *Malachi Corley (WR) - 5'11'' 215 lbs. My favorite WR in this draft. Drawing some Deebo Samuel comparisons. *Cedric Gray (LB) - 6'3'' 235 lbs. Well-rounded LB, has stats in the running and passing game, also some sacks. *Jeremiah Trotter Jr - 6'0'' 230 lbs. Slightly undersized LB, but has good stats in the running and passing game, also some sacks. *Beaux Limmer (G/C) - can see him as a future G/C on the team. 6'5'' 300 lbs, 39 reps on the bench press, 37'' vertical. Can see him as being a RAS pick just based on combine numbers alone. 😁 *Isaiah Davis (RB) - 6'0'' 220 lbs. Almost identical size to Jordan Howard, NFL combine page compares him to JH as well. Over 3,000 rushing yards and 30+ TDs the past two seasons. *Kamren Kinchens (S) - 6'0'' 210 lbs. Reminds me of Sean Taylor. 59 tackles, 5 INTs last season, 11 INTs the past two years. Not to mention both went to UM.

As I would say, like "Dennis Scott" the 1990s Orlando Magic player.

DE/edge rusher is 0% need for the team to draft in the first 3 rounds this year, especially with this year being a very weak DT/DE class. Players like Myles Garrett with 15+ sacks a year don't grow on trees; you can spend five consecutive first rounders on them and still fail to get one. We have a good (though unspectacular) combo in Ebukam (9.5 sacks), Paye (8.5), and Dayo (8). Time to take advantage of this deep WR, LB, S, CB class to get some great playmakers at those positions. a good set of DTs, and back 7 can cover for non-elite DEs.

I saw that video after your post, he responded pretty well. For a second, I thought he was going to pull something ala Ron Artest or Richie Incognito but he was counter-heckling the fan while seemingly trying to be more humorous, while not being good at the latter.

Isaiah Davis in the 5th. 6'1'' 220 lbs, NFL combine has his comparison as Jordan Howard. 3,000+ yards rushing and 30+ TDs the past two years. https://www.nfl.com/prospects/isaiah-davis/32004441-5641-0574-531b-0bc55bd5bc41 https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4695404/isaiah-davis

Not sure if serious. AR has big play ability whenever he's on the field, a player that you have to game plan for. Even when he's not running, he's a threat to scramble and extend plays by several Mississippi seconds. And when he throws, has tremendous arm strength. Fits multiple offensive schemes; e.g. option, under center, shotgun, bootleg, etc. Where as Minshew is an undersized pocket passer that can only operate out of the shotgun.

Not at all. 2 years, 12 million with 5.8 guaranteed.

Would love this scenario:

Malachi Corley by far. 5'11'' 215 lbs, 11 TDs the past two years. Would be our Deebo Samuel that provides a different type of WR threat that we've needed for years.

Neither; Malachi Corley.

Yep. Should be banned from all team activities and property for life.

Not sure how? Worthy listed as 172 lbs, TY at 178. https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4683062/xavier-worthy

What if by some string of luck... We end up with Kris Jenkins Jr (DT), Jeremiah Trotter Jr (LB), Luke McCaffrey (WR), and Frank Gore Jr (RB) in this draft? Obvious inference in their names and family history alone, what are the chances we hit on those picks? Being fairly superstitious, I'd say the odds are high that we hit on 3 of them.

Going all out with my superstitions. Selecting the immediate family members of other NFL players. e.g. Kris Jenkins Jr, Luke McCaffrey, Frank Gore Jr.

Outside of Franklin and Speed (both with 1 year remaining on their contracts), LB is extremely thin, thus the need to draft 1-2 of them. It's a fairly deep LB draft. We have enough OLs for depth behind the starters - French (C/G), Sills (G/T), Freeland (T). And that's not counting Pinter who could be re-signing with us.

A month ago, I would have laughed at the OP and his post. For that reason, I didn't even read the post but only the thread title. Now, not only do I agree with the OP, I don't think he goes anywhere near far enough. Mahomes >>> Manning, and it's borderline not even close. Manning was oftentimes unprepared for the playoffs and lost many games that he should have won; Mahomes would never have lost to the likes of Jay Fiedler, Chad Pennington, or Mark Sanchez in the playoffs.

Per Fanspeak (as of 2/10/24), with no trades: 1. Brian Thomas (WR) - LSU 2. T'Vondre Sweat (DT) - Texas 3. Mike Sainristil (CB) - Michigan 4. Jaylan Ford (LB) - Texas 5. Kitan Oladapo (S) - Oregon 6. Frank Gore Jr (RB) - Southern Miss 7. Aaron Casey (LB) - Indiana

I'm opening up to the idea of Brock Bowers. Passing up on BB because you have Will Mallory is like passing up on Peyton Manning because you have Kirk Cousins.

Would absolutely love this draft.

Unless we can make him an offer he can't refuse. 😁 "His name is my name too!!"
