He's coming long before we pick and there's no way they pick a receiver I'm the second.

1. No, he's been falling and I doubt he's a first rounder on many boards

2. Lol and we're working out guys who would never each the third then because..?

I know he doesn't get much love here but he is exactly the type of receiver the colts would love. He is huge, can stretch the field, killer redzone target and he loves to block. I saw some of his blocks and they were huge hits. If teams try to double TY, they would pay for it.I know people will say WR isn't a need but its an investment. Receivers take time to get up to speed. Usually at least two years. We were spoiled with how fast TY got going. In two years, Reggie will be retired and Nicks might be long gone. Getting a potential #1 receiver now is great value at 59. Most years he would be a mid first round guy. Crazy depth at WR in this draft

I like him as well, because he's a team first kinda guy, which we love. But we just don't have the horses to trade up for him and even if he did fall, it would depend on who's available.

He's so raw and so not the player we need at all.

 

I agree WR certainly isn't an immediate need but his rawness doesn't scare me considering we wouldn't be reliant on him being an immediate impact. I can definitely see Benjamin becoming an Alshon Jeffery like target down the road.

I don't see him developing like jeffrey. He's got an amazing qb and still looks much too raw. I don't think we as a chip caliber team can afford to gamble on him with our only real impact draft pick.

I think pick #59 is the perfect position to gamble on a 6'5" WR who has through the roof potential. I'm not saying we should do it or will do it, but I wouldn't be upset if we did. 

 

In reality, even though he has apparently fallen down many draft boards, I can't see a 6'5" WR with his potential falling to pick 59, anyway.

I like Benjamin but with only 5 picks. We have too many needs in the secondary and OL.

I hope the addition of Nicks keeps us from drafting a WR with our first three picks.

If we are going WR early then we should have signed a decent FA safety and maybe G/C.

      Colts OTAs Thread May 21st-23rd; May 29th-31st

      I'm excited about our future. I think Ballard put together 2 very nice drafts in a row. Never thought we would get Latu, thought we had a better chance at Bowers. Still holding out hope for Cross, he flashes greatness than dissappears, hope he's consistent. Hope Woods takes lead in TE room. I keep writing off Granson, but he keeps impressing. Even if Richardson has a mediocre season I think the team around him could get us to 10-7.

      Harrison Butker's shocking speech, Chiefs probably not going to 3 peat

      By VikingsFanInChennai · Posted

      I think you understood his words in a "positive" way, but that's not what he said.   He DID NOT say that "most of you would choose to get married..."   That's your implication. Of course, only women can bring children in this world and most of the women will choose to be married and have children, but that's not exactly what he said.   He said, "doing so - while some others will go on to lead successful career in the world - will take you closer to God's Will"    Here's what he said from the transcript:    He could've said, "even if you go on to have a very successful career, and get the greatest accolades of the world, I think the most important title of a woman is :  Homemaker. And, that would take you closer to God's Will"    But, he didn't say so because he wanted to say exactly what he believes women should do and brought God into that by saying that's His Will.    I think he made a mistake of implying that women are generally excited about marriage and having kids and being a homemaker, when that's only part of a woman's life - even though that could be the most cherished and blessed part of the life.   He only looked at how that made his wife's life - his words, not his wife's words by the way - and projected that to all the women.

      This happens every single year and every single year people worry about the occasional unsigned rookie when we haven't even gotten into June yet.   Guys/gals... it's really a big nothing burger. Ever since the NFL introduced rookie scale contracts this has been a non-issue. Everything important in those contracts has been made non-negotiable. The negotiable things are largely minutiae - it's about schedule of payment...it's about off-set language, or language about voiding salary payments(for example - can the team void payments for suspensions and stuff like that), etc.   There are two cases I remember in the last 10 years where this has become a problem and the player has actually missed training camp practices because of it - Joey Bosa(because of schedule of payments dispute) and Roquan Smith(because of dispute about the language about voiding payments for suspensions because of play). And as you see... Both of those were top 10 picks. (i.e. more money on the line)...   Holdouts/holdins of day 2 and day 3 picks are pretty much unheard of. I personally couldn't find a single case when I looked for it.    AD seems to be taking part in both rookie mini camp and in OTAs and hasn't missed any practice, we haven't heard about any sort of dispute so far, so my assumption would be there is nothing to see here and it's all formality.    So yeah... Unless we hear there is a problem I would just assume everything is good.
