    Jay Glazer on the Herd

    in Colts Football

    Not a long segment on the Colts but if you skip to 5:10 of the clip the Colts and Ballard get praised and Glazer mentions how some teams are starting to follow Ballard's methods. Not sure if this has been shared yet so delete the thread if it has.

    TJ Hockenson anyone?

    in NFL Draft, Scouting, and Free Agent Talk

    Posted

    From what ive been reading is TJ is a top 15 player in this draft and is being compared to Kelce. Also, reading is he won't make it out of the 1st round. I truly believe if he does end up falling to us in round 1 and he's the best on the board I see Ballard drafting him especially knowing Ebron and Doyle are free agents after the year.

    Kwon Alexander-Worth the Risk

    in NFL Draft, Scouting, and Free Agent Talk

    Posted

    I know Kwon tore his Acl in October but I truly believe when he's healthy he's a top Linebacker in the Nfl and he's only 24 years old. I also know that our LB corp isn't a big need but I can picture Kwon in our system which he is made for. I also believe in today's NFL with having these mobile Qb's and tight ends it doesnt help to add another player who has elite speed and that can cover and tackle and the Colts would be able to have him or Leonard blitz on occasions. I also think with him coming off injury he won't break the bank. I can see a 2-3 year deal. Thoughts?

    Quenton Nelson Played With 2 Bulging Disc

    Pretty impressive playing at a very high level and playing with back pain. Don't know how serious it was but knowing he didn't miss any games or practices it may have been minor. In Baldy's video he mentions how he played with it and was the first person to come pick up his teamates. Here is the link.

    Shane Ray- A Ballard Mid-Level Gem

    in NFL Draft, Scouting, and Free Agent Talk

    Posted

    I know Ray isn't the attractive top tier free agent but this is something I see being very realistic for the Colts. Shane Ray hasn't lived up to the 1st round hype due to injuries and having his job taken away from Chubb but I see this as a guy Ballard may definetly scoop up. We all know Ballard values pass rushers and Ray will be cheap knowing he didn't live up to what was expected. I also think a new change of scenery would due Ray well. I think Ray was more of a fit for a 4-3 than a 3-4 and knowing how we want our DE's to go get the Qb it would be a perfect fit in my eyes. Thoughts?

    What does Cox do better that Swoope?

    in Colts Football

    Posted

    I think with Jack going down they really needed him as a blocker more than a weapon. Also, this guy is still developing and with Swoope i think we saw what his ceiling was. I think Cox has a lot of potential especially as a duel threat. Just needs to tap into it. This offseason and training camp will be big for him.

    Is there a lesson to be learned with the pick of Quenton Nelson at #6?

    I'm guessing that our draft pick will be somewhere in the 14-20 range.   O-line should not be a position of need.   Perhaps WR on offense.   Defense may be a whole lot of positions of need.  

    Ill say this, i hope the pick is BPA and not off need. Always BPA. If that means an OT is the best player at that time you dont hesititate. OT is a top 3 must position to have. I agree though. The needs they need are WR and defense.

    Colts got the draft's best player at #6

    in Colts Football

    Id pump the brake on him being the best. I do believe by year 2 or 3 he will one of the best. I do believe he could be the best player to be picked out of this class but way to early to claim that. What i do love about this though is Ballard traded 3 spots down, got Nelson and picked up 3 2nd round picks. That was killer! Just hoping the players pan out.

    Trade for Shane Ray!

    Boooooo! Misleading title got me riled up haha 

     

    While I like the idea of trading for a quality pass rusher or LB I don't want to lose future draft capital. Quite the conundrum 

    I'm thinking a 4th or 5th. Worth the gamble in my opinion. Its not like Ray is a Bust he just got replaced by someone a lot better

    I think he's too small to play 4-3 DE in the NFL...    think he's more comfortable as a 3-4 OLB...

     

    Shane Ray has the identical size and weight as Vic Beasley. I think Vic Beasley is just doing fine in Alanta Falcons 4-3 defense. Rember Ballard is saying he wants Fast players for the defense. I think Ray checks the box.

    With the selection the Broncos made in Bradley Chubb, if I'm Ballard I'd try making a move for Shane Ray. Last year he was hurt but is a guy that I think that can be a huge asset for the new 4-3 defense. In Missouri, he mostly played with his hand in the dirt. He has a really good first step and could see him being a strong player if he came here. It's seeming like they will not exercise his 5th year option now and see them keeping Shaq Barrett over Ray next off season. I think Ballard could get him for a mid round pick next year.
