Great point.. 28th in the league on 3rd Down. Yikes!

I think Rivers will have a tough game but the Colts win with a Rodrigo FG and Defensive stop. Colts 20 Titans 17

https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/clt/2020.htm Red Zone % Offense - 25th Defense - 18th When the Offense moved to the red zone we were kicking field goals instead of TDs in weeks past. The Defense needs to tighten up a little more in the RZ also. Although, the argument can be made that our Def. RZ% is 18th because opposing teams don't make it to our RZ very often! I think the last few weeks, excluding the Bye week, the Offense has gotten better. We're now 10th in Off. Scoring. Maybe they're "gel"-ing or maybe Rivers is getting more comfortable. Idk. I've been a fan for 20 years and haven't seen our Defense this good (2007 was close). Going forward to the playoffs I believe the RZ% will become crucial and needs to be addressed. That is where playoff games are won/lost(FG vs TD)

He totally shut down Michael Pittman Jr. when Iowa played USC! I had seen his name prior to that bowl game, but when I saw him defend Pittman I was like "this is a guy that should be the Colts radar"

In addition... Benito would rotate with Grover Stewart bc he's more of a NT but he can collapse the pocket, so that's why i listed him as a NT/DT

Definitely worth looking at. I can see him as a 4th Rd pick.. if he has a really combine maybe even 3rd Rd

1)We need both.. QB & iDL. 2) The 3t is the more important spot in our D but I'm all for getting Benito Jones as a NT/DT in the mid rounds. 3) We should draft the QB but I still don't think the future starting QB of the Colts is in this draft

I was thinking Shenault Jr as someone like Metcalf also. He was banged up last season, but 2018, he was incredible.

If we build a great team and then suck for 1 season to get Trevor Lawrence.... i can see the rationality behind it

Carolina Panthers

They would probably trade down to #2 or #3 and pick Ja'Marr Chase while picking up a boatload of picks for Lawrence!

Benito's first few seasons he played in a 4-3. This last season he played in a 3-4 bc of a new DC. He's versatile

I've watched Benito for several months and I would really like this pick in the mid Rounds. He is country strong. I think he does well against the Run as well as getting pressure on the QB. Somewhere between 3rd-5th Rd is where i think he'll go

I would! I watched Tua read defenses and respond accordingly. Short, medium, and long passes were good and he can run if flushed from the pocket. In the NFL he has to be taught to throw the ball away, if need be, rather than hanging on to a broken play, so he doesn't get injured.

Maybe they were made an offer they couldn't refuse
