    This Team has a Coaching Problem/Fire Coaches (Merge)

    Arians actually had the exact same results as pagano is having now. Barely beat the teams you're supposed to cream and get destroyed by teams better than you.

     

    Thing is Arians coached a team in this year that was completely overhauled. A lot of new faces, new rookie franchise QB. This is Paganos second straight year and I don't see a lot of improvements or developments. We are still struggling with our Offensive Line, our Defense is still a mess, and game preparation is still bad...

    We need some changes at the coaching staff this offseason! Todays loss was ugly and it wasn't the first time that the Colts looked sloppy and unprepared. You can blame the lack of execution, you can blame the refs for some questionable calls but if you look back the last two seasons this isn't the first time the Colts looked unprepared and especially regressed in the second half of the season. Colts had troubles last year after the bye week where Luck and the whole Offense struggled and looked out of sync.  This year we saw the same thing. Coaching decisions are odd and play calls (three straight runs - fake punt early in the game deep in own territory etc.) are sometimes just terrible...

    I know there is a good chance these players aren't available at the time we pick but it's hard to tell, players rise, players falls, general manager making dumb decision so just say they would be there:

     

    Rd1:  Eddie Goldman DT (Florida State)

     

    Colts need a dominant force in the middle of their Defensive Line and Colts are lacking such a player since years. It would help our run and pass Defense by freeing up other players to rush the QB. 

     

    Rd2: Cody Prewitt S (Ole Miss)

     

    Mike Adams was a nice additon but he is becoming a free agent and is getting 34 years old. We need a long time solution and Prewitt could be a nice addition.

     

    Rd3: Eli Harold OLB (Virginia)

     

    With Mathis going to retire soon Colts need some pass rushers. I like Harold who is fast and athletic.

     

    Rd4: David Cobb RB (Minnesota)

     

    Richardson is not the back the Colts thought he would be, Bradshaw a free agent and Ballard coming back from a season ending injury. So RB is a need that could be addressed in free agency too. 

     

    Rd5: Aundrey Walker G (USC)

     

    Offensive Line is still a huge concern. Mewhort looks good and the left side looks solid but Colts need to improve the right side. Cherilus is struggling (but maybe just because of his injury) and Thornton who was promising in his first games as a Colts regressed. Louis isn't any good and Reitz no long term answer and injury prone. So adding another Guard makes sense to me. Walker is a good run blocker but needs some development. 

     

    Rd6: Ladarius Gunter CB (Miami)

     

    Davis is the real deal, Toler is solid, Butler serviceable but we can upgrade the positions three and four in our CB group. 

     

    Rd7: Corey Cooper S (Nebraska)

     

    Another option for our Safety group.

    Report: Lance Louis to start at RG.

    I don't like it. I don't like how the Colts are gambling with their Offensive Line and the health of their franchise QB. Look I like Harrison and he maybe will be a good Center at some point in his career but there is a reason he went undrafted and if you are in a win now modus Shipley provides more help. Lance Louis was bad in Chicago and he was bad in the few games he played for the Colts. Besides the Mewhort draft the Colts did not much regarding one of their biggest weaknesses this offseason. I really like Grigson and he did some great work but on the OLine I think he makes one mistake after another! Third straight year with inconsistent Line play as best is a disappointment!
