[Ballard pre-draft presser]

Regardless of Ballard's talk about the current CB room, I think he's still taking a CB in 1st round

Good incentive deal. He's good when he is actually on the field. 

 

We still need another safety not named Thomas out there.

Definitely possible, they've been rumored to be a trade up possibility.

 

 

Seems hard to pass on 1 of those WRs after letting Allen and Williams go this off-season.

 

 

Side Bar:

 

 

 

If they stick to that logic: 

 

Tyler Owens

SAF

Texas Tech

12’2”

 

The broad jump record of 12 feet and three inches belongs to former Connecticut cornerback Byron Jones, who set the mark in 2015. Jones went on to be a first-round pick and it’s likely in part due to the explosive athleticism he showcased in this very drill. 

 

He almost tied the record for longest broad jump

This might be the most boring FA period of Ballard's entire time here....and that's really saying something.

[Will Evan Hull Replace Moss?]

Colts will draft another RB 

[Colts extend Zaire Franklin]

Nice move. 

 

Let's get a CB and/or safety now

Not sure about Woods and his situation. I think Mallory over Woods.

 

Woods got hurt, but should be good by now, right?

 

I forgot about Mallory.....he looked good last year in limited play. 

 

Cox is the odd man out for sure. 

[Update: Charges against Drew Ogletree dismissed with prejudice (merge). **Ogletree reinstated pg4 updated**]

I hope the Colts draft Bowers. 

 

Woods, Ogletree and Bowers would be a top flight TE room

I prefer to fly under the radar anyways. We know what we have in Steichen, and he's top tier in my book.

I would be shocked if Bowers is sitting there at 15. If he is out of the top 10, you can bet someone would move up and draft him before the Colts because Ballard likes to accumulate picks

 

Idk, there could be a run on QB's and push him down. Here's hoping!

Player has to be willing to sign them first. Pittman has already gone on record saying he wants to test the market.

 

You are right. 

 

Pittman saw what JT did to the Colts, and he would be remiss not to say that. 

 

Plus I remember hearing Ballard talk about letting players test the market as well. 

I think that approach is best for both parties so MPJ knows he didn't take too little, and Colts know they didn't overpay. 

 

That said, I hope they hammer out a deal before all that happens. 

 

Not that they wouldn't apply franchise tag, but I believe the last person they did that with was Pat McAfee like 10 years ago.

Do you tag Pittman or Grover… that’s the question

 

 

Neither, just get the deals done 

 

[What did the Superbowl teach us about team building?]

Defense: Continually running zone with no pass rush/never blitzing is a recipe for disaster. 

 

This happens to be exactly what the Colts "cook up" up every single game. It continues to result in average/to below average QB's looking amazing. Until something happens where they get a legit pass rusher or change scheme, it will be more of the same this year unfortunately.  

 

Offense: Colts finally have a great QB, so that is the hard part. Just has to stay healthy. 

 

Re-sign Pitmann, but we need a legit #1 target for AR5 

I agree with what's already been said, and would draft Bowers @ TE. That will get the mismatches we need and hopefully get some heat off Downs and Pierce so that one of those dudes is open. 

 

[TY says Luck would’ve come back?]

Colts not giving Luck an O-line was an absolute and utter failure on Grigson and the entire Colts Organization. 

 

Schefter was trash for announcing mid game. 

 

Luck should've announced his retirement in the off season. 

 

It was such a bad situation all around.
