Im wondering why Kelee Ringo is dropping that far. Did I miss something? 

He has a world of talent but I know when i watched Georgia this year he had some struggles.

 

It is possible his tape doesn't quite match his upside/potential.

 

I still think he has immense upside worth gambling on. But he definitely has some things to clean up that will get him killed at the next level. 

 

I would gladly trade up here to take him in a heartbeat using a 4 + 5 if we could. 

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

Take away his overall size and he is still a CB guy

 

He has elite traits....just not elite size.

 

I love love love it

Everyone I wanted got picked elsewhere. I liked Nolan Smith, Josh Downs, Drew Sanders, Hooker, Tippmann... All gone.

All damn good players to target too.

 

Sorry brother. i hope you land some more guys that you want as the draft goes on 

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

That 10-yard split is fire!

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

 

He is such a clean prospect. Outside of the size and the "doesn't take the top off a defense" stuff, he could legit be the type of productive slot guy that hangs in the league for 2-3 contracts

 

Great value in the mid third!

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

dammmmmmn

 

i never thought we would take him with his size but he is freaking electric!

 

That is a fantastic slot pick!

let's gooooooo

I wonder if Jones would make a good guard

he is so dang massive i dont know.....probably not.

 

but he would maul people at RT....just have to deal w speed a bit better especially benders.....it is hard for a guy his size to bend at the waist...

 

like robert mathis always says....OT hate blocking below their waist. 

 

But he is so big and long he can recover well 

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

I am not 100% sure how we would adjust....since i have long said Braden is a great RT and we need to stop trying to move him inside and all....but man....I would love Dawand manning RT and scooting Braden inside....especially for the running game 

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

5 picks away everyone. let's gooooooo

All TN guys going now

That one hurt a bit lol

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

Damn

 

Tillman went to the Browns? ugh 

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

Tillman is probably the WR that i think could end up being the most complete guy.

 

But all the guys that track the "Colts type of guys" have been saying Tyler Scott

 

So I wouldn't hate on either of them lol

What’s the medical situation 

I think its a foot injury they are citing. 

 

Was the first i heard of it when i heard it being a reason he might be flagged and falling 

2 minutes ago, stitches said:

I wouldn't mind getting 2 big athletic corners... Ringo is not as long as Ballard loves, but still... 

Agreed,

 

And he has some change of direction issues and grabiness to clean up. But man he would be fun. 

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

Man we are 8 picks away and there are like 15-20 guys i would be happy with lol

 

Ringo is probably the one I still want most. 

 

But man, I would love to add specifically one of Ringo/Rush/Tillman/Hyatt/Zavala/Dawand

 

Washington at TE lingering due to medicals is crazy too.

If Jameson stops gambling…  

I mean Hooker shouldnt play this year

 

And Jamo is trying to do everything he can to seemingly make it so he cant play this year.

 

So 2024......?    lol

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

I really like Tank Dell and hate that he landed in Houston. Boooooooo

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

Hooker to Jameson Williams in the future is gonna be fire. 

 

Great deep threat and great deep ball thrower

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

Hi Tom! You like your draft picks? @TomDiggs

 

 

I have to admit that I thought the 2nd round went as well as possible for the Colts

 

Everyone knew they had to get a CB or two this draft. And knew it was a deep draft at CB but some really top-notch guys were falling.

 

I had a very, very slight preference of Ringo to Brents.....but Brents was always, always, always the more likely Colts player w his traits.

 

So you put him in a secondary where he can be coached up by Milus and i think its a fantastic pick

 

To get an additional 4 and 5 just for moving down 9 spots is killer.

 

I still would like to see another CB and then interior OL and slot WR help.

 

But we are loaded in mid round picks with (2)  4s and (4) 5s

 

That is a lot of dart throws for Ballard and team and also those 5s make it easy to move up in the 3rd if someone we have high is lingering.

 

Happy so far

[2nd round Pick hopes...]

Trading down to likely net an extra 4th is probably the most likely. 

 

I doubt we can get an extra 3 out of it unless we move wayyyyyyy down. But still, this second round is deeeeep.

 

If we just stay and pick, my top priorities in order would likely be:

 

Kelee Ringo

John Michael Schmitz

Dawand Jones

Brian Branch

Joey Porter Jr

Cody Mauch

O'Cyrus Torrence

Julius Brents

Michael Mayer

Matt Bergeron

Steve Avila

Jonathan Mingo

 

 

That is a minimum of 12 guys deep that i would put a low 1st or high 2nd round grade on and be super happy to get.

 

So if we can move back 5-10 picks and net an extra 4th I would be psyched....provided we still landed one of those 12 guys or so.

Colts told Richardson they were going to take him if there.

 

 

I really, really wanna know who was the person at 5:50 asking AR how he thought Frank Reich would mentor him? and then asked it again when AR basically was like "Frank Reich?"....you could hear others in the room saying "wrong team" lol

 

that had to be embarrassing as all hell lol

 

 

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

So that ends round one.

 

Some elite elite talent left

 

Levis and Hooker. Dawand. Branch. Mayer. Porter Jr. Ringo. Torrence. Avila. Washington. Brents. Schmitz. 

 

I could definitely see merit in trading back and getting an additional 4 or so to do so. 

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

Just now, Restinpeacesweetchloe said:

My guess is CB will be the first pick tomorrow.  
 

Are there any WR it Oline worth that 35th pick?

There are good OL out there

 

Torrence, Avila, Schmitz on the interior

 

Bergeron and Dawand Jones outside.

 

I know the colts liked Dawand a lot and had M.Brown scouting Georgia hard

 

But I would love to get Ringo/Porter/Brents at 35 

[2023 NFL Draft -- April 27th to April 29]

Sweet Baby Jesus

 

Eagles grab Nolan Smith to go with Jalen Carter and add them to Jordan Davis.....basically stole the entire Georgia elite DL lol
