3rd Day Targets.... (Defense)

[NewColtsFan]

We'll start with defense.    That's what we all seem to hope we do tomorrow,  especially since we did nothing on Friday..........

 

So,  by position, and not by ranking....   this is from Scouts Inc at ESPN.   I'm expecting Grigson to offer a 2015 #3 to obtain a 2014 #4.    I don't see him letting 65 picks go by before we pick at 166.

Don't see that happening.

say rest be defense on picks.

[funktacious2]

Grigs does have a pretty good track record of trading up around this time in the draft. There are some CBs and Safeties still left who I wouldn't be surprised if we feel pretty good about. I know everyone is getting tired of losing draft picks, but depending on the guy, I wouldn't be too upset if we parted way with a 2015 third round pick for a high 4th rounder. Quite a few good looking players still out there.

[Coltscrazy]

There is so much talent left, I'd definately trade up.  Possible targets:  Bashaud Breeland, Brock Vereen,  Daquan Jones. 

 

Some of my favorites - WR - Bruce Ellington, Jared Abbredderis, Mike Campanaro  TE - Arthur Lynch  OL - Russell Bodine, David Yankey, Cyril Richardson, Ryan Groy  RB - Andre Williams, Devonta Freeman, James White  DL - Caraun Reid, Brent Urban, Michael Sam, Josh Mauro  LB - Shayne Skov, Carl Bradford, Jodan Zumwalt, Devon Kennard, Tyler Starr  CB - Dontae Johnson, E.J. Gaines, Andre Hal, Ricardo Allen  S - Jonathan Dowling, Kenny Ladler, Alden Darby, Hakem Smith

 

My favorite list of who I think will be there in the 5th

1.  Rusell Bodine

2.  Devonta Freeman

3.  Jonathan Dowling

4.  Dontae Johnson

5.  Carl Bradford

6.  Kenny Ladler

7.  Michael Sam

8.  Josh Mauro

9.  Caraun Reid

 

My favorites who might be in the sixth:

1.  James White

2  Ryan Groy

3. Devon Kennard

4.  Andre Hal

5.  Jordan Zumwalt

6.  Ricardo Allen

7.  Tyler Starr

[#BringBobBack]

if we get Dontae Johnson a safety like tre boston or if he's even around Brock Vereen and maybe a NT like  Caraun Reid i'll be happy

[HtownColt]

Im all for Breeland, Marcus Roberson, Jaylen Watkins, Pourifoy, McGill, Walt Aikens, Brock Vereen, Ahmad Dixon, Dion Bailey, Josh Mauro, Deandre Coleman, Jackson Jeffcoat, Derrell Johnson and Michael Sam

Desir will be gone early tomorrow

[BProland85]

We need DBs. I didn't realize Daquan Jones and Carl Bradford were still available too.

 

If we could offer up WR Lavon Brazill and our 2015 5th, Id be all for moving into the 4th. I feel as if Brazill has some trade value, just not great value.

[colts52761]

can watkins play free safety?

[Rhane19]

would love Carl Bradford, but him dropping to the end of the 5th round would be pretty stunning

[Dark_Indy]

I'll be honest with you, I've been watching some tape on Alden Darby and he seems to be someone we could use- a safety/nickle tweener with cover skills. He's projected into the 6th round but I think that is more from his college than his skill.

[ColtsFreak]

Secondary and some more help for Mathis is on the wish list.  Gonna drink some of Apple juice and do a rain dance this morning for hope of a trade or 2 into the 4th. 

[Nobody]

I didn't think about that. We were all expecting a ton of defense and yet chances are we don't get a single impact player in D here. Damn..

the guys i highlighted are the one i think that still make impact for an team imo

[HtownColt]

We need DBs. I didn't realize Daquan Jones and Carl Bradford were still available too.

If we could offer up WR Lavon Brazill and our 2015 5th, Id be all for moving into the 4th. I feel as if Brazill has some trade value, just not great value.

That trade won't even get you in the bottom of the 4th, hell it won't even get you a 5th

[MTC]

There are so many good defensive backs left as well as ILB. 

[Manning1887]

Offensively, David Yankey is still available. I thought he was a second round pick for sure.

 

I hope Exum is there in the 5th!

[James]

A lot of quality DBs still sitting there. I guess this is what a deep draft class looks like.

 

Hopefully we go S, CB, DL.

[coltsfanatic24]

I don't think we should trade up lets keep our picks. I like Ed Reynolds or Dontae Johnson in the 5th, one should be there. 

 

In the 6th i like Walt Aikens, McCullers, Justin Ellis or Aaron Lynch. 

 

7th round prospects - E.J Gaines or Aaron Colvin

[In Luck We Trust]

We'll start with defense.    That's what we all seem to hope we do tomorrow,  especially since we did nothing on Friday..........

I hope we can get one of M.Sam, Skov, Smallwood, Colvin, Dixon,  or Exum. if we can get two or three of those guys that would be better. but one would be nice. 

[In Luck We Trust]

I didn't think about that. We were all expecting a ton of defense and yet chances are we don't get a single impact player in D here. Damn..

Freaking Mewhort.

I didn't understand that pick either. he is a project player at best. and still do not understand why we drafted a WR when we have Wayne, Nicks, Hilton, Rogers, Brazill, and Whalen not to mention able to put Fleener and Allen in the slot position at times. could have waited a year or signed a UDFA. instead it feels like we are only drafting guys to put on the practice squad. I would have liked us to get Southward or Terrance Brooks to fill Bethea's spot at the safety position. instead we go with a Guard who prob will never start a game for us. 

[ScissorMeTimbers]

Of the remaining safeties, I like Craig Loston, Brock Vereen, Dion Bailey (in that order). I know ILB isn't a need but Shayne Skov tickles my fancy. I also wouldn't mind grabbing Russell Bodine, I love his power.

Moncrief has first round talent, but needs grooming. Who knows if he have Wayne or Nicks in '15. Your thinking short term, they're not.

[Defjamz26]

This has to be one of the greatest drafts ever. Almost every team is having a great draft. The depth is unbelievable. We need NT competition so I still like Justin Ellis and Daquan Jones, but now you still have McCullers and Coleman on the board. And the safety depth is looking good as well. Vereen, Loston, and Bailey still available. And then at corner. McGill, Breeland, Desir, are all still available? Then you still have, Roberson, Purifoy, and Terrance Mitchell. It's incredible.

 

Even at ILB, Shayne Skov, Yawin Smallwood, Max Bullough, and Avery Williamson. I hope Grigson trades into the 4th.

[Indi Warrior]

I hope we trade away a future 3rd to nab Desir, get Carl Bradford if he's still there in the 5th (or Michael Sam if Bradford's gone).

[bballstud2]

I hope we go with Desir or Purifoy(would probably have to trade into the 4th for desir), then Ahmad Dixon who we could probably get in the sixth and is a great run defender. I think the only guy left who has a chance to be a good pass rusher is Jackson Jeffcoat, who we could probably get in the 5th. If we could get Desir/Purifoy, Dixon and Jeffcoat, I think that would be a very successful day 3 of the draft, possibly getting 2 first year starters.

[Boiler_Colt]

Vereen, Huff, and Ladler are all safeties I think would be good for us.

[NewColtsFan]

If we're going to trade into the 4th round,  we're down to it now...

 

After Carolina comes SF, NE, Denver and Seattle.   

 

All the picks after that are compensatory and can't be traded.    So, it's now or we hold our water until the 5th round.

 

Would the 4 teams I mentioned be interested in a 3 next year for a low 4 this year?    You'd think so, but you never now?

 

Who knows, maybe we don't want to trade a future 3?    Grigson showing great patience.

 

Maybe he's willing to do a 4 next year for a 5 this year, which would give us two 5's?

 

I just don't see us sitting on our three picks that we have.   Making a trade just seems to fit the Grigson profile.....

 

We'll soon see..........

[Boiler_Colt]

And......every safety is off the board.

[NewColtsFan]

I'm WRONG again!    Boy, am I on a roll!!

 

I sure hope we're trying to trade for an extra 5th round pick.   There are still guys there I would think we'd like and want......

 

Now, we'd be offering a 4 next year for a 5 this year......   hoping we can find someone who is interested......

 

But, we've got to wait for 8 more compensatory picks to know....

[NewColtsFan]

And......every safety is off the board.

 

Well....   not every....   but certainly most!
