Nice! I hope they do another after the draft. It’s always fun seeing them discuss the their convictions and their reactions on draft night. As well as getting a first look at the new rookies coming in. Not much to gather from this video but it’s always a little reassuring to see those guys hard at work and I like that they have installed a culture where they really test each other.

So doing it now to free up some space for a safety… is that what you are saying?

Bowers. May not be the most likely choice but it doesn’t seem as unlikely as I once thought it was. The teams that might take him have bigger roster holes than I think we do. They might pass in favor of OT, Edge, CB or whatever. We are the team in that range that I think can best afford to spend a pick on a TE. It just depends on how special these teams think he is.
One way or another I love our draft position. We’re gonna land either him, a great DE prospect, Brian Thomas, or a top corner. And I’d be happy with any of those. There is good depth to this draft and I think we can address many of our weaknesses throughout.

@funktacious2 As you weren't available and hadn't sent any preferred choices (I could've missed), I had chosen these selections for Jaguars.
As only Colts selected after your picks, if you would like to choose different players
From the list of players available in Big Board, you can feel free to post your picks.
anyway you decide, please confirm the selections.
Thank you for the selections, I had planned to double up on o-line, so this is perfect.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see it go down similarly on draft night. Plenty of teams have the need and there is likely many to be higher on boards.

So, you are happy with the pick?
I used to think you were a Pats fan. Lol. I think I called you "a classy Pats fan" but you never corrected me.
LOL! No I must have missed that one. I think I just spit up some of my dinner.
and yes, love the pick!

Rip. Missed my pick. On the bright side, I would (edited) have went Arnold anyways haha. Sorry stepped away a bit when I saw we were waiting on the Colts pick.

Awesome, and
Would you like to be GM for the division rivals, Jacksonville Jaguars? Other choice would be Pittsburgh Steelers, who have fewer draft picks than Jaguars.
And, the draft is scheduled to take place in the evenings 7 pm EDT to not later than 10 pm EDT, starting from April 2nd, coming Tuesday.
I can take the Jags!

I get your point, but what does it achieve? It’s not abnormal to rally behind and invest in a 1st round QB. You don’t use the 4th overall pick and then just not spend resources to set them up to be your franchise guy. Yeah, sometimes it doesn’t work out and GMs lose their jobs over it. And yes, some people are already sold that he’s gonna be elite, but generally most people are just intrigued and see the potential. I’m actually less concerned at this point on how he develops than I am with him staying healthy this year. We’ll never know who he really is if he doesn’t play.

Not surprising but if seems we’re betting on the home-grown talent. I mostly just want Grover and Kenny back back, but I would understand Blackmon as well. That would still leave us with some room to bolster the roster.
-
I dig it! I like Mitchell as a trade back target as well. Could be really good

Penix isn’t making it out of the top 10. There are about 5 teams ahead of us who are going to go QB.5 QBs in the first 15 picks would be crazy impressive. Not impossible but I don’t think that happens often. Last time was 2021 but before that it was a very long time I think.

I guess as a small comfort, neither of the other two rookie QBs won and perhaps looked worse. Richardson had a good rating until we abandoned that abysmal run game and Jag kept making things difficult for him. Titans and Texans lost

Too many passes for Richardson. 37 passed is too many.
Yeah that’s nuts but then again we had 65 rushing yards and 40 of those was Richardson… yiiiiikes.

It was an okay game. Run game was awful but the defense made some nice plays. Richardson was kind of what you would expect flashed some great things but didn’t look good downfield and had a mistake late that cost us big time. Hope he is fine and we move forward and find a way to fix what hurt us in this one.
With the Next Pick drops Tonight!

I mean… maybe haha. Could be one of the pash rushers or corners too as they are frequently mocked all over the place is the 8-20 range
