    Nice player but is he a “Colts Guy”. I think the character, professionalism, maturity, along with a whole host of other traits play a significant role in the draft selection. (For the Colts Organization) if he is there, and if Ballard’s team concluded that he is not our guy, we would trade that pick.

    First off

     

    Thanks for sharing...... These are always fun to read

     

    With a rapidly aging DT room, there is a very decent chance that Ballard picks a DT (3Tech) in round 1

    I tend to think he may take the best DE or WR, but Newton has played every spot on the DL, and could be a DE

    on early downs and move inside on passing downs 

     

    If it were me, I would take the BPA at WR in round 2

    (There are 4-5 that might be available)

     

    A guard in round 3 is a real possibility as we need to keep adding to the room due to injuries and needed competition

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    There was a time early in Luck’s QB tenure that Oline help should have been made a priority…. With the talent on defense this year, and considering the needs other teams have, it’s a great opportunity to grab some BPA type talent at positions that might have gone earlier than expected. We have enough TE… give the WR room another year… sure up D and O line. Add depth at CB, OLB, RB, etc. 2 cents…

    Early Colts record predictions? **MERGE**

    How many games were we predicted to win in 2012?

     

    I'm NOT trying to compare AR to AL.  I'm really just trying to remember what the braniacs thought back then.

    With the 35th in the 2023 NFL Draft, the Indianapolis Colts select…?

    Yeah. I think Flowers will be gone before 35.

     

    Also, there should be a lot of good, "coulda been a first rounder" players. One I like is the LB/Micah Parsons like rusher from Arkansas. Drew Sanders. Outside of scoring TDs, we need more guys who can put heat on the opposing QB. He's a very good rusher. Just not sure he fits Bradley's defensive scheme. But having Sanders would also help our LB unit. We've lost some dudes. I do think Jojo Domann will make steps this year...

    Add ‘Captain’ Jack Campbell LB out if Iowa as well.

    I have not heard that at all.  Maybe you have him confused with someone else.  In fact PFF just released their rankings before the draft and they think he could be drafted anywhere from pick 26-51 with his ranking at 26.  He is a big man who is versatile and can play G or T.  He had a great combine and senior bowl performance and is one of their favorite OL who should be starting soon in the NFL.  I watch Syracuse a lot and he definitely is a great player.

    Sorry. Andrew Vorhees was the one that was injured.

    One of those WR are going to slide into the second round. If there's a guy there that can score TDs, that's who I want.

    Jordan Addison, Jalin Hyatt, Josh Downs...

    Add Zay Flowers to that list

    2023 NFL Draft: Simulated mock drafts

    Just did a mock draft on https://www.profootballnetwork.com/mockdraft/, but missed being able to screenshot just my draft, so I'll type it out. No trades on this one.

    1. CJ Stroud, QB - He's my favorite at this spot at the moment. Our HC/OC hire could impact this pick, but for now, this is my guy.
    2. O'Cyrus Torrence, OG - I've seen him pop up in the 1st round some, so I don't know if he'd be here, but if he is, he would give another absolute mauler opposite Nelson.
    3. Byron Young, DT - Just a powerhouse, especially for his size (6'3", 292lb). At the moment, he's an elite run defender, but has traits to be a good pass rusher as well.
    4. Zach Harrison, DE - Absolute freak athlete, who just hasn't lived up to his hype coming out of HS. He's awkwardly stiff, so at the moment a much more linear rusher than bendy, but has way too much upside to pass on at this point.
    5. Joe Tippmann, C - Another mauler to add to the OL. 6'6" 312lbs, but extremely quick off the snap and plays with surprisingly good leverage for his height. Bonus that he's also an IN native.
    6. Jayden Reed, WR - Reminds me of a smaller, poor-man's AJ Brown. Doesn't have elite speed, but good acceleration and contact balance. Generates YAC out of the slot and brings return ability as well.
    7. Riley Moss, CB - Productive CB in college. Has a strong athletic profile with a great vertical jump (was also a collegiate hurdler). Has sufficient long speed, does well in zone coverage, and is quick to break on passes, so he may be an ideal fit in the slot. Doesn't meet the arm length threshold, but plays like he has longer arms than he does, so I don't think it's an issue.
    8. (7th) YaYa Diaby, EDGE - Would be a designated pass rusher to start, but has the size and length to be at least quality depth. A speed to power rusher that uses his long arms well, but needs to develop better lateral counters and needs to get better in run defense.

    Could be close…
