    Wow this is really dissapointing. 

     

    With that said, I dont want this guy on the team anymore. Yeah hes had some good moments, but he is an atrocious tackler and apparently, a world class *. Hes also not good enough to overlook this.

     

    This is a great opportunity for Darius Rush and Jaylon Jones.

     

    The Colts need to get out there and sign a vet corner or 2, ASAP.

    He's one of the best coverage guys on the team and he's not a world class * for betting on games, players have done far worse and received less punishment

    Would have to have the details of what games he bet on and the outcome. Not sure we will ever see it.

     

    He usually just balled out. Think he was #8 PFF CB last year.?

     

     

     

    I sure hope the media is at OTAs tomorrow, we need some different news to look at....

    He was the fifth best rated cornerback last season via PFF

     

    2022: 82.1 grade

    2021: 70.7 grade

    2020: 73.9 grade

    Gotta see how it all ones out on the field but let’s be honest this draft is going to be largely judged on Richardson does.  

    Absolutely

     

    This draft will be decided by which AFC South team picked the right guy - if any

     

    I'm probably one of the few that's more excited about Julius Brents than any other player they picked

    He's actually not a burner. Reminds me more of a Cole Beasley which in isn't bad.

    Not necessarily talking about speed when it comes to the comparison

     

    Moreso route running, separation, shiftiness, and a match-up exploit

    Nice job…


    Two small issues worth noting… 

     

    First, Voorhees’s arms are over 32 inches so they’re fine for guard.   BUT….  He blew up a knee in Feb and is likely out for most of the 23 season.   
     

    Second….   You left out a draft pick.   176 at the bottom of the 5th.   It’s the pick the Colts got in their trade of Gilmore to Dallas.    
     

    Otherwise, one of my favorite mocks.    Good job.   :thmup:

    Forgot about his ACL and the Gilmore swap

     

    Vorhees can probably be dropped down to the R5 (doubtful he'd be there), Diaby would be a good target in R5 aswell

    Someone like Tippman, Olu, or Patterson can slide into R3

  6. Colts Mock:

     

    First and only mock from me for this season. I expect Ballard to move out of 35 because I doubt Ringo will be available. 

     

    35 (550) to Washington for 47 and 97 (542)

     

    R1P4: Will Levis QB Kentucky

    The 4 QBs have been talked about all offseason, most everyone should know the pros and cons of them so I’ll keep this pick short.

     

    I’ve felt Levis fits the Colts the most out of the 3 QBs that should be available at 4.

     

    He’s highly instinctual, loved by teammates, a great leader, has a fantastic arm, has experience in NFL playcalling, and I think his mechanics can be ironed out with good coaching. 

     

    His ‘22 film wasn’t otherworldly by any means and the blame partially falls on his shoulders but if you watch his offensive line play, it’s reminiscent of Luck trying to play behind Grigson’s failure of a trench.

     

    Whoever the QB is, they’ll get my support.

     

    R2P47: Julius Brents CB Kansas State

    Brents is one of my favorite guys in the class and I hope he makes it to this pick. 

    He’s 6’3” with 34 inch arms and and had fantastic testing at the combine

     

    He’s played in both man and zone schemes during his stints at Iowa and KState.

    Ball skills are great, he’s aggressive at the catch, knows how to move his feet in zone, and is a very willing run defender.

     

    Add more physicality and reps to his press-man ability and I think he’s got a chance to be an absolute stud in the league.

     

    He’d slide in perfect to play OCB at the strong side of Bradley’s defense

     

    R3P79: Andrew Vorhees OG USC

    5 years of experience on the OL at every position except for center

    He’s out for blood when it comes to run blocking and him paired with Nelson should make JT’s job much easier.

    He’s aggressive, always looking to knock somebody over, finishes plays, knows how to use his hands to get defensive linemen off their game, can adjust well after first-punch strikes and is an anchor on the line.

     

    He has below average arm length which could prove to work against him when working against NFL tier defensive linemen.


     

    R3P97: Tyler Scott WR Cincinatti

    Tyler Scott in my opinion is a junior version of Jalin Hyatt.

    He’s a burner on the field, knows how to track go-balls, and knows how to navigate open fields due to his experience in playing running back. 


    He’s only 5’10, 180 and his arm size is average. Catch radius and run blocking aren’t going to be strengths of his in the league. He’s also had issues with drops in college.

     

    R4P106: Jaylon Jones CB Texas A&M

    Corner is a position I think Ballard needs to double dip in.

    He’s a bigger prospect and plays that way when it comes to physicality at the catch. He’s not afraid to get dirty in the run game and he’s going to play a lot better on a defense that runs zone more than man.

     

    His footwork is very raw, his hips aren’t as fluid as they can be, and his long speed is an issue.

    If the coaches can get his mechanics corrected, I’d expect him to be CB4 in his rookie year.

     

    R5P138: JL Skinner S Boise State

    I think this team truly needs a top end guy back there but I can only dream about Budda being sent to Indy and while I don’t think Skinner is that player, I do think he can help this safety room.

     

    Skinner is a hard-hitting, helmet in chest downhill safety that isn’t afraid of contact. He’s gotta add more weight when he hits the league and I think he needs more work in reading the field, playing angles, and getting his hips to be less stiff and more fluid.


     

    R5P162: Michael Wilson WR Stanford

    Wilson’s a talented player that’s been plagued by injuries.

    He’s been a team captain at Stanford, loves to run block, and I think he’s at his best in the MOF.

    His route running needs work and he’s probably not going to be a deep threat but every team needs a physical guy that can work in the middle.

    He’s also a plus gunner on ST

     

    R7P221: Jalen Redmond DT Oklahoma

    R7P236:  Caleb Murphy DE Ferris State

     

    Redmond and Murphy are both likely PS guys or at the most depth rotational guys.

     

    Redmond is a rush first IDL, he’s quick off the line and has decent counter moves to hit the OL with but he’s a liability in the run game.

     

    Murphy had absurd sack numbers at FState but played against mostly D2 players and he got worked by a few tight ends at the Shrine game.

  7. There's absolutely no reason to not take a quarterback at 4. None.

     

    There's no Day 2 or 3 QB worth picking.

     

    Not Hooker, not McKee, not Bennett, not Hall, not Duggan

     

    Brock Purdy has everyone thinking people can replicate his success. It's not gonna happen.

    It's Shanahan's scheme mixed with the most loaded roster in the league

    He has been trying to find A guy.   It's a pretty tough job incase you hadn't noticed.   How many great QBs are in the league right now?

    Mahomes, Burrow, Allen, Herbert, Hurts, Lawrence, Lamar, ARod, and Dak are the only cemented franchise guys in the league right now

     

    If finding a franchise guy was easy, there'd be more than 9 of them

    1. Ballard has to be the worst GM in Colts history.

     

    2. He constantly passes up good players to select hidden gems that do not work out.

     

    3. His Offensive line build (The heart and sole of the team he claims) has been simple a failure.

     

    4. We do not have an elite pass rusher. Our cornerback room is bare. 

    1. The worst GM in Colts history is the one that's to blame for Luck's sudden retirement. That's a fact.

     

    -Bjeorn Werner, Trent Richardson, Philip Dorsett, D'Joun Smith, Donte Moncrief, Hugh Thornton

     

    His Day 2 picks were terrible.

     

    2. Hindsight is 20-20

     

    3. OL was top 3 in '18-19, top 8 in '20, top 12 in '21 and struggled the first half of the year in '22 mainly due to scheme and injuries...

     

    4. There's plenty of teams without a top edge rusher in the league right now.

    Isaiah Rodgers and Kenny Moore would start at OCB and slot for a lot of teams..
