Bump this thread two years from now....
Nobody knows today if Ballard's draft was "brilliant" or "terrible" or somewhere in between. We can argue that it was one or the other but that means nothing. Results on the field will determine how good of a draft this was.
All anyone is doing now is guessing...and if anyone here or elsewhere were very good at that, they'd use those talents to win Powerball.
-
Two RB???
Thats, um, interesting......
guess they have a secret stash of CB in the roster I don’t know about.

Would be a great 1 year deal ....it’s not like we’re over flowing with WR talent.
-
Hopefully they won’t need to draft a QB....so I’d trade back.
-
Check back in a couple of years. Having 5 picks in the first 2 rounds is a rare thing,,,,this draft will likely determine if the Colts continue with mediocrity or go back to being in the playoffs every year.
Come 2020 when people look back at this draft Ballard will either be judged a fool or a genius....you can’t really label him either today.

What did Tampa get?
ESPN guys said they thought it was 12 and 2 second round picks. Not sure if that’s official or not.

I’d have traded back, but the o-line clearly needed the help.

Not one Sunday Night or Monday Night Game this year for us. They threw us to the Patriots on Thursday Night at Foxboro. What a joke.
They are coming off a 4-12 season, with a big question mark about Luck being able to play QB.
It sucks to get the Pats in New England, again, but I don't understand why anyone would have expected more than 1 or 2 prime time games.
-
I’d do that trade with Cleveland. 2 of the top 4 picks plus 4 more in the second.... is a lot of talent to bring in.
Especially when I feel the chances of Luck being 100% are not good.

I have no expectations of seeing Luck starting this September or really ever again. I hope I am wrong and he’s eventually better then ever and this team can be headed back to the SB in the next couple of years.
Many here see this situation with “hometown, everything will be ok glasses”...if he weren’t “our” QB....we would have written him off by now as he’s still not throwing real footballs 15 months out from his last game and is optimistic that he’ll have no restrictions in July when camp starts. That hardly gives me a great since of optimism in his prognosis for then 2018 season.
If he’s not back and healthy this fall, they’ll likely be drafting a QB with their top 3 pick next season.

No way they should trade him.
Luck will be 18 months from game action and nobody knows if he will really be ready to go in Sept.
Brisett may not be great, but he is better then many back up QBs.

- no downside to this....

Sure, for a year at $3M it’s not a real big risk....nice signing by Ballard.
-
It’s a one year deal.....on a team with a mountain of money to spend. How bad can this really be?
If you aren’t going to spend big money in FA this is what you will generally end up with unless you manage to draft a bunch of WRs that become stars.
I think they still need to sign another FA WR and then draft someone else in Rd 3 or so.
-
Lots of good it will do them....
-
-
One step forward....two steps back....
guess they are going all out for the #1 pick next year.

Their secondary is still trash
We’re not exactly loaded with all-pros there either.

The only way Ballard can make the fans happy(or at least me) is if he drafts Saquon Barkley. Very bad off season, no offensive lineman signed either. Scary
...and no WRs or CBs signed either.....
Get ready for a 4 or 5 win season at most.
-
Shaping up to be another poor season this fall.
They pretty much have no CBs or WRS.....a bad oline, weak LBs and a big question mark at QB.
But it other than that....
-
He better be a draft wizard this year (and likely next) to take advantage of the high draft position.
i don’t envy him.....this team right now has soooo many holes.
-
This is why it might have been a good idea to over pay to keep Melvin or sign someone else before we had to scrape the bottom of the CB barrel.
We're #32!!!

With Luck they are likely middle of the pack unless some of these rookies just light it up. Most likely will be 9-7 / 8-8
Without Luck they are a bottom 5 team.
We won’t know for months which team they will be.
