Scott Pennock

Only gave up 3 sacks in his career. I like how that sounds! Probably shift inside to Guard with Raimann, Smith and Witt at Tackle. Still think a Jadyn Hicks (S) and Cam Hart (CB) are on the radar

Take a joke? About a disease that kills people? Why don't you just not make the stupid joke..........and cram that snickers up your 4th pint of contact!

Funny thing about this pick is the fact that fans WANTED this guy, so they are willing to overlook the diabetic part - whereas yesterday Latu was projected to be gone by 15 so he was on nobody's radar, so they lashed out in anger about his misdiagnosed injury history........why, because he wasn't who THEY wanted! Hypocrites....

Wow.......you sound like you are miserable at a party.

1. His neck was cleared by the same surgeons that cleared Peyton Manning 2. Double digit sacks in the last two years since being cleared. 3. One of the best ways to improve coverage is to improve pass rush - and this guy gets after the QB 4. Also, one of the best ways to improve your offense is to get off the field on 3rd Downs 5. He was not on my radar but I trust the professionals more than my own judgement - stop being biased because YOU didn't think we would draft him! 6. This is the NFL - injuries are always a concern even when they play their whole life without an injury - Parris Campbell and Javon Patterson come to mind for the Colts. 7. Multiple upon multiple pundits also say he is the best edge rusher in this draft - though those rankings can always be better taken with salt.

Really? Seems like an odd rule when they are not allowed for most everything else, however, thank you for the clarity!

He wouldn't be allowed in the building if he were not taken off the list.

Dismissed with prejudice means the case can never be reopened, you really think they will add on additional weeks of suspension instead of time served?

Stay Put at 15 Though I suspect a QB Hungry team *MAY* trade up or back into the first round to secure Bo Nix or Michael Penix R1: A. Brock Bowers - TE B. Brian Thomas - WR C. Quinyon Mitchell - CB R2: A. Troy Franklin - WR B. Payton Wilson - LB C. Xavier Worthy - WR R3: A. Cole Bishop - S B. Jaden Hicks - S C. Cooper Beebe - OL R4 A. Cam Hart - CB B. Theo Johnson - TE C. Jarrion Jones - CB R5 A. Tanor Bartolini - OL B. Mason McCormick - OL C. Isaac Guerendo - RB R6 A. Cedric Johnson - DL B. Tip Reiman - TE C. Edefuan Ulofoshio - LB R7 A. Miles Cole - DL B. Elijah Jones - CB C. Tylan Grable - OL Potential UDFA's Trey Tayler - S Qwan'tez Stiggers - CB Bub Means - WR Isaiah Williams - WR Nick Gargiulo - OL Giovanni Manu - OL Kingsley Eguakun - OL Steele Chambers - LB Logan Lee - DL Kamal Hadden - CB Deontre Prince - CB Ro Torrance - CB Carson Steele - RB Frank Gore Jr. - RB Grayson Murphy - DL Jalen Green - DL Thomas Harper - DB Kedon Slovis - QB Jack Plummer - QB Joe Milton - QB

Again, an extension for a star and another starter. Meaning that 24 of the 25 starters are returning from last year, plus: AR5 returning from IR Flowers returning from IR Woods returning from IR Dulin returning from IR Free Draft Picks who redshirted last season on the IR Witt - OT Scott - Safety Leo - DE Hull - RB I lump these guys in with this years draft and UDFA class. What this all tells me that the FO can choose BPA during the draft knowing there will be internal improvements based on experience (Downs, Mallory) and (Jones, Brents) plus the 4 rookies who rehabbed, learned and got stronger through mental reps, film work and an NFL strength and conditioning program. Just my $0.02

You mean that Colts fans don’t like the moves that Ballard has made because they don’t fit the narrative that they want to follow? All 25 starters return from last year is not an improvement? Does continuity not matter? The Jaguars, Texans and Titans are ALWAYS signing and trading for players to backfill someone they lost in free agency so how is a one for one swap of players seen as an improvement versus retaining your own. Additionally, and I cannot stress this enough…….it takes two to tango!!!!! Naptown is boring and Indiana is a flyover state. Most, if not all, free agents will choose other cities to play in regardless of money. There is plenty of history to show that neither the Colts nor the Pacers have ever drawn top flight free agents….. That is my understanding of the challenges faced by our front office no matter who sits in the seat! So no, I do not understand your (and most “fans”) whining about the other teams in our division.

I came to read the whiners whine about not trading for Diggs.............and you folks did not disappoint at all. LOL

So this offseason Ballard has re-signed every free agent starter (except for Gardner obviously as a technicality) and all 25 starters are under contract. Now he is at a point to truly draft BPA the whole draft. Should still target certain positions for depth and development like IOL, Safety (behind Blackmon) and LB. Should target potential starter level positions like WR and Safety (FS like a Cole Bishop or Jaden Hicks type) and third down coverage LB (like a Payton Wilson or Edgerrin Cooper type).

In my opinion if we are staying at 15 it’s because one on Nabers, Bowers, Rome or MHJ dropped to that spot. Otherwise I see the FO trading down at least once to the bottom of the 1st or completely into day two…… No other offensive weapon has the upside of those 4 and worthy of a top half of the first round pick…..

https://coltswire.usatoday.com/2024/03/26/colts-free-agency-danielle-hunter-texans-offered-more-money/ Prime example of a player "CHOOSING" to play somewhere else versus come to Naptown. He chose less money to play for Houston. This happens to both of our major franchises, the Pacers and the Colts. This is not a GM issue, this is a culture issue. Indiana is a flyover state and thus most free agents will choose to fly over as well and sign with a franchise in a larger city, larger market. You can say he did it because he likes the Texans chances with Stroud versus the Colts with AR5 - but, big time free agents have skipped the Colts even during the Manning and Luck era's too. Perhaps someday some of you armchair GM's will realize this and stop whining so much about the FO............Polian, Grigson and Ballard alike.
