Deandre Hopkins and Eric Fisher?

[colts52761]

I've seen some mocks giving us Fisher in the first. I haven't seen him play. I would like Hopkins, he could be a future number 1 wr. I've been impressed with Hopkins, any chance we take either one in the first? Thoughts?

Hopkins isn't projected as a first rounder and WR isn't a need for us next season. I haven't seen Fisher, but Kiper had this to say about him to us:

Indianapolis Colts

Top emerging needs: OL, NT, G, WR

Analysis: After they devoted so much of the 2011 draft to offense, adding a pair of tight ends and a wideout after drafting Andrew Luck, I think even the Colts are ahead of pace based on where they thought they might be at the midway point of 2012. So, the focus still has to be on Luck. This is already proving to be the once-in-a-generation talent I believed he'd be when they drafted him, and I think while finding the right fit on defense is important, Indy should look up front first, making sure the offensive line is as good as it can be. The defensive line, and the best possible fits for Chuck Pagano's system will be important, but for me the wall they build in front of No. 12 comes first.

Drafting tomorrow: Eric Fisher, OT, Central Michigan

Here is Kiper's evaluation of him: One of the great sleepers of the draft. Extremely long and uses his length really well. When he gets in a wide base, it can take a while to get around him. He often can make it look easy in the MAC but also looked great when Central Michigan faced top competition and really isn't a newcomer for scouts.

If we were to go with a CB I would like to see Logan Ryan

[Gavin]

if were going RT then its Ryan Matthews Ricky Wagner, Alex Hurst or Chris Faulk in my opinion (the last 3 I named would all come in the 3rd)

I'm kind of curious where the Honey Badger will go after missing this season? He's a very good CB, and depending on if he has cleaned up his act or not (smoking weed) I think we could go after him? I'm sure I'll catch some crap for that one though.

Fisher is one of my favorite sleeper picks. Honestly, I doubt he's a sleeper by the end of the Combine.

I'd love for us to be able to grab him. Maybe he goes to LT and Castanzo goes to RT? Don't know. But I think he's a serious talent. I would expect that he's very high on he Colts radar....

The other kid I don't know... but haven't seen his name as a 1st round projection for WR.....

Doesn't mean he's not good or won't be a very good NFL player. Just doubt he's a 1st round pick.

What about Oday Aboushi from Virgina?

I would go:

Rd1: Barrett Jones OG

Rd3: Oday Aboushi OT

Rd4: Kwame Geathers NT

[hillbillybob]

okay im asking everyone. since the colts have sort of a lot of holes who do you wish the colts get in free agency and draft round 1 through however many picks we have.

[hillbillybob]

we have 43 million in cap

[Moncrief]

If we were to sign some solid DBs and OL in FA and maybe add a WR through FA coupled with my mock, then we would be one year removed from completing this roster for the most part

[hillbillybob]

i wish we'd get nnamdi or rodgers cromartie

[hillbillybob]

we need TACKLE, GUARD, GUARD,OLB, 3-4 END, CB, SS, WR
