  1. Doubt any team that would draft Cooper in the first round would want to use him as a return specialist. Rather have a backup player assume that role. see DB Dee Williams (Tennessee) - probably go UDFA After 12 games he was ranked 5th. Had 18 PR for 264 yards with a 14.7 average. Next year for return specialist keep tabs on: WR Brashard Smith, Miami, FL. WR Drae McCray, Texas Tech WR-F Jacob De Jesus, UNLV
  2. My TOP DB fits for the Colts 1. CB Quinyon Mitchell (Toledo) 2. CB TJ Tampa (Iowa St) 3. CB/FS Jaylin Simpson (Auburn) - Moved from CB to FS last year in college, but his speed should keep him at CB in the NFL imo 4. FS Calen Bullocks (USC) - needs to be a better tackler. Ran a 4.48s-forty 5. FS Khyree Jackson (Oregon) - His 4.5s-forty was the 22nd fastest out of 29 CBs at the Combine. See Jackson moving to FS much like Cooper DeJean who also ran a 4.5s-forty 6. FS Renardo Green (Florida St) - 4.49s-forty see moving to FS 7. FS Jarvis Brownlee Jr (Louisville) - 4.48s-forty see moving to FS 8. CB Jarrian Jones (Florida St) - got speed and coverage skills but is an average in run-defense and a poor tackler 9. CB Elijah Jones (BC) - got decent speed and coverage skills but needs to improve tackling and run-defense As you can tell not many starter options opposite Brents besides Mitchell and Tampa while I see both Jones' as late depth. After the Combine we know this year's receiver class is faster than the DBs. Why can see a few change positions in the NFL and would struggle to match up as outside CBs. Even Nick Cross ran a 4.34s-forty so yeah not excited about many of the DBs in the draft class.
  3. Really hoping we could address more of our defensive backs in free agency. Looks more and more like we look to the draft. If so, am hoping we do trade back in Round 1 with the Cardinals for an example. Trade back R1 to P27 – Colts send R1P15 and R5P151 to ARI for R1P27, R3P66 and R3P90 R1P27 TE Ja’Tavion Sanders - hoping Sanders becomes our #1. Did pass on Pork Chop. R2P46 SS-NCB Javon Bullard - looking more like we are low on cap space and Blackmon is done in Indianapolis. Bullard offers bonus of dual roles. Nubin is another option but lately have Bullard high ranked and figured still available. R3P66 FS Calen Bullock - like the idea of an earlier R3P here to go after one of the few remaining talented FS left in the draft class R3P82 – Browns offered trade back to R3P85 and send R5P156 plus WR Austin Watkins R3P85 via CLE SWR Malik Washington - Josh Down was a dream pick in R3 last year and Washington would be another great WR3-4 option R3P90 CB/SAF Renardo Green (Florida St) - Liking Green a lot lately and has the ability to start opposite Brents Day 1 I feel. Not sure about moving to SAF. R4P117 OT Mason McCormick (SD ST) R5P156 via Browns WR Ryan Flournoy - After the Combine I've moved Flournoy up from his R7-UDFA initial projection R6P191 Edge Javontae Jean-Baptiste R7P234 OLB Richard Jibunor (Troy) As for Ryan Watts will leave him as a UDFA but do like Jean-Baptiste and Jibunor much better.
  4. After signing our own free agents, it doesn't look like we will have that much cap space to splurge on a big-time player. Possibly some lower tier players on cheaper deal. Not sure how much more can spread ~7M in cap space. Was hoping we extended Buckner a free up cap space. Been mention of releasing MAC from the fanbase but doesn't appear to be what the Colts plan to do.
  5. Pass but wouldn't mind adding either: Edge Anfernee Jennings (Patriots) – known as a stout run-defender and ranked third among edge defender in run stops last year Edge Emmanuel Ogbah (Dolphins) – better in a 4-3 and 3-4 base defense as evident from his past two seasons after Miami changed defensive schemes.
  6. Now JK Dobbins wouldn't mind adding. Realize he had a torn achilles and still is young (2)5 with top-10 potential won’t be available to play until late 2025.
  7. Moss is officially gone. Waiting period of FA or draft for our next RB2
  8. Making me hungry for some McCormick seasoned French Fries on our OL.
  9. Colts trade R1P15 back with Rams R1P19 and get LAR R3P83 – Rams have 12 draft picks Colts then trade back again with GB R1P25 and get R3P88 and R6P216c who have 11 draft picks Colts trade R3P88 via GB with SF for R3P98c and get R4P132 Colts trade up with MIA send R6P216c via GB and R7P232 to MIA for R6P200 R1P25 via LAR-GB OL Jackson Powers-Johnson – 2025 replaces Ryan Kelly and should win RG starting job in 2024 R2P46 WLB Edgerrin Cooper – E.J. Speed is a 2025 FA - hope Cooper is the new "Maniac" version of Leonard R3P82 RB Isaac Guerendo – replaces Zack Moss, solid tackle breaker with great hands – bonus ST R3P83 via LAR SWR Malik Washington – Josh Down clone and should be a solid backup R3P94 via SF CB Khyree Jackson – solid zone cover CB R4P118 TE Ben Sinnott – MAC replacement R4P132 via SF OL Mason McCormick – solid LG who may earn 2025 RG spot when JPJ moves to center R5P150 QB Jordan Travis (Florida St) – future QB2/3 with mobility like AR - Sam Ehlinger replacement R6P193 OC Tanor Bortolini – replaces Danny Pinter R6P200 WR-X Ryan Flournoy – outstanding combine should be a solid backup to MPJ
  10. We know the Colts love to run the ball and have a solid OL that we can actually do that with JT. NFL is an RB by committee and the Colts will need assurance if anything happens to JT. Moss was that guy, and the league has clearly devalued RBs. Look at the Titans they drafted Spears in Round 3 to compliment Henry and appears to be the new RB1 in Tennessee. I would like to see something very similar for the Colts with either Guerendo or Laube. A back capable of RB1-2 status knowing that we can continue our ground and pound game with a high level of confidence.
  11. The Rams appear to have 12 draft picks. See the Colts trading back in Round 1 with the Rams R1P19 and get LAR R3P83
  12. Only thing about Bortolini is his short arms (20% tile) and span (42% tile) but the rest of his timed measurements were ALL excellent for sure. Figured like Kelly we would at a minimum prefer an OL with 33" arms. Although Pinter measured 31 7/8" arms. Bortolini. With Pinter being a free agent now could see the potential to add Bortolini instead in Round 5-6. Dallas Turner is a SLB something the Colts don't really use much of is the only reason I don't have Turner on my draft board. Too high of a premium draft pick for a position devalued by the Colts. Not sold on Fiske either. Don't see his athleticism translating to the NFL or to the Colts system. Simply not a fan or buying into the hype.
  13. I also wondered if this was a possibility. With NIL deals we know these young athletes are getting paid and surely would make up what they would lose being draft later. If your MPJ know the fanbase has been wanting MHJ which might be the reason MPJ hasn't signed a long-term deal.
  14. Moss done well with the Colts for sure but can see him test the market and not come back. The Bills released Hines and wouldn't mind adding him back wearing multiple hats as an option SWR/RB/return specialist. Hines as we know can catch and to me would be an excellent backup option behind Downs. Obviously, a draft risk if we do let Moss go, in Round 3, I would consider drafting either RB Isaac Guerendo (Louisville) or Dylan Laube (New Hampshire). Like Hines, both have great hands and can function as return specialist while serving as RB2-3.
  15. Brown’s David Njoku is another trade option for the Colts, which the Browns might strongly consider especially looking ahead to 2026 and 24M cap hit if he remains a Brown. However, if the Browns trade away Njoku the Browns are off the hook in 2026. Njoku definitely be an upgrade over what we have now in-house and still fairly young but mostly experienced compared to the rooks.
