Ricky Pearsall might be what we want on Day 2 and focus on other positions of need on Day 1. Day 2-3 got to like Malik Washington as a backup in the slot. Both Flournoy and Means look like solid backups and was impressed by their combine performances.

Definitely an option

Time for a little update on these guys that I pointed out before the start:

Keon Coleman: His RAD was still high but his 40 time was disappointing. Although some have pointed out that his MPH during the gauntlet drill was as high as other guys that ran faster. Still im skeptical

Brian Thomas Jr.- Checked every single box. I don’t really care that he’s not 6’4” because no one ever is lol.

Keon Coleman is a slower Pittman. He had trouble separating in college. It will look tragic in the pros

I wouldn’t touch the kid

Brian Thomas would seem to be the explosive guy that has a reasonable chance to be there at 15 if we keep the pick

I would take him over Bowers

Personally, I like Ballard’s tight end room. It’s not great, but I think it’s good and diverse. I’m sure I’ll get pushback on that view from some. That’s ok….

I think they keep MAC, and develop the young folks

We agree

I am starting to think (Hope) that they go after Brian Thomas, Verse, or Latu with 15

One of the funniest episodes

March 2

As with the Sienfeld show the character George Came to the conclusion that every instinct that he had was wrong… he went with the opposite

Thats how I feel trying to predict what Ballard will do in the draft

I want a certain player group

I want Latu or Verse in round 1

Of COURSE it will be something else

We will probably draft Powers Johnson center

March 2

I think that Ballard LOVES the medium cost CBs that excel in THIS zone heavy defense

IF

maybe a BIG If. …..

If we spend big in FA I would get players that make THIS zone heavy defense successful

stud Defensive End

Playmaking FS

I see us adding depth in FA and draft but doubt we go with any big name FA or early pass rushers, it's a down year for pass rushers and I don't see any that will come in and be an immediate upgrade over what we already have.

Maybe

Respectfully

We were beaten by Texans where they were down 2 of their WRs.

We lost

Imagine if they are 100 percent healthy

Stroud was getting better week after week

He is very talented

IMHO our teams desperate needs are a markedly improved pass rush and a play making free safety

IMHO if we have more of the same as last year we will have a loooonnnggg year

The top teams generally have an excellent QB, LT, and DE

I think our QB WILL be that excellent QB

Our LT is growing toward that

We are missing that 3rd element. That DE that other OCs fear

Do you see that guy on this roster?

Kind of expected... he looks more like a power/explosive rusher than a bender...

If we don't address DE in FA, I think we have to look at Either Verse or Latu as round 1 pick

Latu seems to have speed, flexibilty, and advanced pass moves

Verse has speed and power, and needs some time to develop more pass moves

At this stage, I would be happy with either

I thought the same until I saw his measurements. 31" arms is very difficult to overcome at DL. I think it's enough to make Ballard pass.

I wonder if he could play SSDE then shift inside

Jared Verse, mediocre shuttle and three cone.

How did Latu do other than his 40

Can I convince you to look at DT Leonard Taylor as well? Seems he's the 3rd highest ranked DT, so he might be worth a look?

He had an underwhelming season and ran very poorly at Combine

5.27 for a 3tech is way too slow

at 306 he is too light for 1 tech

in my very humble opinion. I hope we don’t take him

I could live with these two as picks in round one and two

I truly believe the Colts may have to jump ahead of Titans pick seven or at worst pick 10 ahead of the Jets to grab Bowers. I can really see the Jets grabbing Bowers at 10.

The Titans OL is a disaster

I bet they go OT here

I am feeling DL (DT/DE) or CB for No.15 more and more

If we don’t spend in FA

I would think we would have to fill the hole at DE, FS, and WR in first three rounds

That makes sense

but….. he will probably draft a Guard. Who knows

He’s not as bad as some of you think.

that said, I’m expecting a break out year for him this year .

I hope he does

He plays the run well, but he seems stuck to the tackles that are average to above average in talent.

He is fast for a 40 time,(For a DE) but his first step doesn't seem quick enough

I look at it this way..... if we DONT improve and stay with the same level of performance, the DC will probably be sent packing

If I am the DC, I am standing on my desk, for a DE and FS in FA or draft

His career is in the balance

Hoping for Edgerrin Cooper from A+M. Isaiah Land was a LB previously too

Edgerrin Cooper looks like a great LB

I wish we had more picks!

This morning's latest mock:

No trades. I like it. What are your opinions?

15. Terrion Arnold, CB Alabama

Height: 6 - 0 |Weight: 180 lbs |RAS: N/A

As a freshman, and even early in 2023, it appeared Terrion Arnold would be heading back to school for his redshirt junior season. The young defensive back had a tough outing against Texas, but has been absolutely outstanding since. His high-caliber basketball background is clear in the way he plays press coverage. He is patient and long, never overcommitting to a jam and rarely allowing his eyes to bite the cheese. His smooth and explosive athleticism make him a perfect candidate for heavy man-coverage defenses, but he possesses the zone intelligence and background in Nick Saban's scheme to be a plus zone defender off the bat while he grows. Dalton Miller 12/2/2023

46. Ja'Tavion Sanders, TE Texas

Height: 6 - 3 |Weight: 235 lbs |RAS: N/A

The best pass-catching prospect on Texas is tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders. He moves extremely well for a 6'4", 255-pounder, showing off great comfort as he releases off the line of scrimmage and even as defenders drape his body in coverage. Sanders is a natural receiver in the mold of Gerald Everett, thanks to his quickness and willingness to get physical to finish the catch. He won't be confused for an especially effective blocker, but Sanders makes an effort. Sanders should be valued as a strong Day 2 prospect with another quality year in 2023. - Ian Valentino

82. Xavier Legette, WR South Carolina

Height: 6 - 3 |Weight: 227 lbs |RAS: N/A

Calling Xavier Legette a late-bloomer seems like an understatement. Legette wasn't on anyone's radar in the NFL Draft world aside from his explosive kick return potential. The 6'3", 227-pound receiver is a height/weight/speed anomaly who will receive more than a few DK Metcalf comps during the draft process. He's unbelievably explosive. In fact, he'll likely be one of the fastest player at the draft, even at nearly 230 pounds. And he doesn't turn like a cruise ship as a route runner, either. But his most impressive attribute is his high-point ability and vice grip hands in contested and aerial situations. Dalton Miller 12/2/2023

117. Maason Smith, DT LSU

Height: 6 - 5 |Weight: 316 lbs |RAS: N/A

Despite not making it through his first game as a true sophomore, the LSU Tigers defensive tackle remains one of the most heralded NFL Draft prospects in the 2024 cycle. His frame may be the most frightening since Shawn Oakman, and his game resembles Stephon Tuitt and David Irving. His freakish athleticism paired with improved hands and a little experience could secure him a top-10 selection come April. - Dalton Miller

149. Isaiah Adams, OG Illinois

Height: 6 - 4 |Weight: 318 lbs |RAS: N/A

192. Jay Stanley, S Southern Miss

Height: TBD |Weight: TBD lbs |RAS: N/A

231. Kimani Vidal, RB Troy

Height: TBD |Weight: TBD lbs |RAS: NThis is a good one

@Stephen

Kalen King (PSU) clocked as the third fastest player at 20.57 MPS behind DB Max Melton (Rutgers) second fastest, and first fastest clocked was WR Devontez Walker (UNC). A few Colts fans have been saying we want/need a fast WR hence the reason why the Colts are talking up with Walker.

Walker might be the answer for us in round 2 if we go DE or CB in round 1

He looks like a legit option, but I’m pretty sure I’ve read somewhere there are some character concerns with him.

That what has been written about. On the surface, not a CB pick

The Colts need to add a LB at some point. Both LB’s are on the last year of their contracts and the depth behind them is poor.

Agree 2000%

We need a 3rd linebacker to play early downs and push our two current LBs for playing time

My sense is that our current LBs are average vs pass

Here it is:

What position groups are you watching for the immediate future and for a few years down the road for the Colts? (Or other teams)

@stitches @Solid84 @MikeCurtis @indyman411 @Ohio Colt @Archer @NFLfan @VikingsFanInChennai @2006Coltsbestever

@KB @Defjamz26

@John Hammonds

Thoughts??

DE

WR

FS

CB

C / G

TE

late QB

February 25

If Ja'lynn Polk runs a 4.4 ish, he would be an option in round two as well.

The guy is wide open on many deep plays........

He is a big kid, and averages 16.8 yards per catch.

He MIGHT be the guy we need

Pearsall also shined at the Senior Bowl AND he played with AR.

Yep

Pearsall had ZERO dropped passes.... ALL YEAR (If I remember the talking head correctly)

If he runs a 4.4, I could see him as an option to the Colts in round 3

February 25

On 2/13/2024 at 9:41 AM, Defjamz26 said:

I agree

There will be many players that will move up. But there are only so many draft positions I see Baker as an option for us in round 3

February 25

I think we may already have replaced him...... with Speed

But...... This team doesnt have the 3rd linebacker that it needs

We have scrubs

So, I can see us picking up a SSLB with speed in the draft

was just having conversation about trading w pats to get Marvin Harrison Jr. realistically what do yu think it would take to get their pick ?? i think the trajectory of the pats and colts and trade between the 2 teams actually makes a lot of sense, depending on what we could send their way

It would take 2 1s and maybe a player

I TRULY hope that we dont do that trade.....

Harrison is amazing but, if I am CB, I am ONLY trading up to get a generational QB or DE

We have our QB of the future (I believe) and I dont see a cant miss DE in this draft.

This draft is really strong with excellent WRs

We can a day one contributor at our pick at 15 though I hope we go DE

Or more probable, we trade 15 (Maybe twice) to get more 2nd round picks or late 1 picks

If we have traded back 1 or more times I am GLADLY running up to take AD Mitchell or Brian Thomas

(Whomever is left)

THEN drafting defense pick after pick
