    Love the group of CBs we have now

    Tyler had a solid year in 2014. Davis was arguably the best cb in the league. Butler is a bit better and adding D'Joun and Geathers. I see a strong defensive back field. We need much better linebacker play and here's to hoping Hughes and Chapman being much improved.

    You must understand. . . very few people think he'll be a bad player.  Our issue with the pick is that he's not going to see the field much in the near future barring injury.  

     

    He's not going to pass up TY or Andre Johnson on the depth chart this year.  He's going to have a hard time passing Moncrief because Moncrief has a year on him which is huge.  

     

    So essentially you are spending a first round pick on a man who's going to be #4 on our WR depth chart for about 2 years.  That's bad when you consider that because we have both Fleener and Allen we use our TE's heavy so our #3 WR doesn't get as much playing time as he would on another team.

     

    Guy may be a great player but presuming we re-sign TY it's going to be a couple years before he gets on the field a lot.  (Barring injury)

     

    While a lot of other picks at other positions could have started right away.  You could have gone OL and started right away at RG and maybe a guy who can transition to RT.  You could have gone DL and started right away there.  Safety and started right away there.  CB and started in a year.  (Toler's contract is about to run out).  RB and rotated heavily with Gore for a year or 2 before being the top guy.  (I say that and I'm generally opposed to RB's in the first round.)

     

    But with this guy you can only fit 11 total guys on the field.  5 are OL, 1 is your QB, and then the remaining 5 can vary between TE, WR, and RB.  Usually you have at least one TE on the field and an RB, especially if one of those TE's is your team's #3 leading receiver.  

    I understand just fine but no a single game is won in April so I am just sick of all the negativity about this pick. Lets just wait until we unload vitriol

    PFT: Multiple Colts players upset with Dorsett selection

    Keep in mind that a big part of blowouts to Dallas, Pittsburgh and NE were due to the lack of first downs by the Colts offense.

     

    Dorsett is really quick with great hands.  If TY were in the draft this year after playing with the Colts the last few years wouldnt you take him in the first round?

     

    When teams draft for need over BPA is usually bites them in keister!

     

    We can bloviate all day about this but its pointless to keep thrashing this issue until we see it play out on the playing field

    No faith at all for Duran carter?

    Keep in mind Cherilus may be ready and healthy. He was solid when he was not injured and if he is healthy we don't need an OT.

    Chapman should be one year better and a healthy Art Jones will make a big difference.

    But what if Hilton goes elsewhere after this season or we suffer a WR injury?

    I am willing to see how the rest of the draft finishes,training camp and league cuts before I make a panic judgement

    Duron Carters Number

    As we all know he is wearing number 9.  But I have searched the rules and I cannot find the rule where a receiver can wear #9 in the regular season, you may only wear single digits numbers in the preseason.

     

    It appears he may have to change his number in the regular season when Lenz (11) or Boone (15) gets cut

     

     

    Here is the most current rule listing I could find

     

    1. Such numerals must be by playing position, as follows: (a) quarterbacks, punters, and placekickers: 1-19; (b) running backs and defensive backs:20-49; (d) offensive guards and tackles: 60-79; (e) wide receivers: 10-19and 80-89; (f) tight ends: 80-89;
    1.  Receivers are permitted to wear single digit numbers during the preseason when there are no numbers in the 10s or 80s available. For example, Victor Cruz of the New York Giants wore number 3 in the 2010 preseason but changed to 80 before the start of the regular season.

    Absolutely not, He seems overwhelmed on the sidelines a time and he has a lot more work to do to fix our deficiencies on the field.  

     

    Let Pagano coach and Grigson manage

    He is a bit undersized and that causes his stamina issues but he can bulk up a bit. When he is at his best he is a disruptor on the field and makes a lot of plays.  I see a lot or rotation in 2015 at the DT position and hopefully he can earn a lot of snaps
