So apparently our biggest draft needs WERE OLB & OLine

They actually were discussing trading into 2nd round:

#Colts never really considered trading up. Didn't want to mortgage the remainder of draft to move into second round.

I would have traded into the 2nd if possible or at least up to the mid 3rd for Winters, I think Thornton will be much better then any Guard we have had in recent history but I dont think he will be anything special (which he dont really have to be special). wonder how long before he starts to

I've just never understood how folks could know our needs were Oline & OLB yet want to talk about CBs.

That's some cornerbackite behavior.

Never has and never will make sense. ;)

The whole "cornerbackite" thing is getting old ... stopped being funny a long time ago; it ranks right up there with being played out like leon sandcastle references.

It's funny when people don't know the difference between "then" and "than"!

Someone who corrects grammar on a web forum jumping in to defend something thats annoying! Priceless!!!

--BTW I left an apostrophe out just for you professor!

No what I bet is hurting the colts right now is all those good players went off the board in round two but the colts didn't have a 2nd round pick this year and one WR I wanted was the other WVU WR Bailey what sucks is at the tail end of the third round the rams snagged him the would be the second WVU WR they got in this draft now they have both cant even believe I am saying this but Sam Bradford might actually be really good this coming season.

Such a tired and lame retort... although I'll quickly concede you are far less guilty of bad grammar as some.

We are all on this web forum, theoretically, wanting to communicate our thoughts. FWIW, properly using written English only helps in that effort, and butchering it can definitely lead to confusion.

That said, I frequently post from my phone, and I am not good with its keyboard, so many of my posts are littered with typos.

I could understand that point of view if you're talking about individuals who are talking about cornerbacks to the exclusion of offensive linemen and pass rushers. And I'm sure some were.

    • I gotta say you make arguments that you’d never accept from your students because they’re so superficial.      So saying Ballard has been mediocre to bad is tissue paper thin.  Why hasn’t Irsay fired this mediocre to bad GM?  Because he signed off on what Ballard did each year in real time, not after the fact.   Irsay knows Ballard has an eye for talent.  And as Ballard freely admitted in January, the Colts haven’t had more success because he failed to get the QB right.  These aren’t excuses, but it IS badly needed context — which you’d realize if you weren’t always looking for new ways to hate on CB.      As to what you and Moose “supposedly said”  there’s a simple way to verify.  Go to the Day 2 draft thread of Friday April 26.  It was between 3a and 4 my time when I saw it.  I believe it was recent.  Just add 2-3 hours depending on your time zone and you can see your conversation with Moose.   What was so astonishing, what makes me “prattle on” as you put it is how you two ever thought you were right?!?   Given your career choice you jumped to conclusions I’d like to think you’d never accept from your students.   Why you thought Ballard didn’t know more?  Why you thought you two knew better?   Ballard not only knows more, he knows dramatically more.  As I said in another post, he shared the tip of the iceberg.  He doesn’t share the part of the iceberg that you can’t see.  The 90 percent.  The absence of curiosity is stunning given your occupation.    Now, at the bottom of your post you brought up a new line of attack on me and I have no idea what you’re talking about?   I’m not an optimist?   Since when?  Based on what?   In my 12 years here, only 1-2 posters have ever made that claim.   So what are you talking about?     Finally….   You can stop calling me Sir.  It’s normally said with respect.  You don’t respect me at all.   I’ve extended olive branches publicly and privately, and both have been rejected.  Your choice.  So calling me sir is intended as an insult.   It’s old and boring.   Move on.   I don’t know why you “enjoy engaging with me”.   You take a beating.  But if that’s what you’re in to, be my guest.    Sorry this went so long….       
    • He loves you, you just don't know it (sarcasm) 
    • Cubs actually won one - beat the Giants finally.
    • Jared, put $50 on the Lakers to win it all. They are getting +4000 odds, you would win $2000, if you lose, you lose just $50. Hear me out, those odds will drop bigtime shortly because I think the Lakers will make a huge move to bolster their roster.    LeBron wins his 5th tying Magic and Kobe, Lakers tie Boston with 18. Perfect ending because LeBron looks like a hero + he just beat Kareem's record too. 
    • So….  You’ve been absent 7-10 days (more?) and you’re back looking to start not one, but two fights!  Okie-dokie!      If you want to call me names — fine.  I’d simply respond that my knowledge is counter-balanced by those who THINK they know a lot, but clearly don’t.   On to your other post.  That one is longer, and so will be my response.
