[JPFolks]

How about a little more info? I am not sure who a couple of your new players are for example.  Could you post their full name and school/previous team?  Getting 5 opening day starters out of one draft would be historical wouldn't it?  I thought getting Hilton, our TE's and Luck in one draft was beyond amazing....

TJ Clemmings OT Pittsburgh (Talked to Colts)

Ameer Abdullah RB Nebraska

Stephone Anthony ILB Clemson

Marcus Hardison DL Arizona State

Clayton Geathers SS Central Florida.(Talked to Colts)

[danlhart87]

Redding if Re-Signed would most likely start over Hardison and Cherilus if not cut would start at RT.

[Patagonia Chris]

Most teams talk to over 60 kids at the combine, so a team interviewing a kid there isn't a big deal. No way Gosder Cherilus is a June 1st cut. They still owe him guaranteed money and he hasn't been terrible.

If we have three rookies (3, 4, 5) starting on our defense next year,  we'll likely have ourselves a very poor defense.

[ColtsBTM12]

I sure hope we can get Franklin in free agency.

[bestQBever]

jackson does not start over Freeman. Freeman is the best Linebacker on our roster right now.

[crazycolt1]

I just don't see this as our starting lineup. Very seldom will three rookies start all at once.

[danlhart87]

In my mock we don't re-sign Freeman.

[Gavin]

Those players on defense(That you have drafted) would have slightly more of a chance of starting on defense that I would as a rookie, I like the Clemmings pick

[HtownColt]

Highly doubt Colts start 5 rookies

???

[HtownColt]

They started 4 in the past .

Because they gutted the roster prior

[danlhart87]

Doesn't necessarily mean it won't happen again

If Redding retires there's a high chance a rookie starts

LT-Castanzo

LG-Mewhort

C-Wisnewski(FA) he could be the answer

RG-Peat(1) if we can get O.Franklin on a good deal he would be a RT

RT-Cherlius- again if we get Franklin hes gone and Peat starts even with his cap hit

DE-Jones

NT-Terrence Knighton(FA) i read he wants $7.5mil a yr if we sign him to a 4yr 26-32mil deal id be happy

DE-Nagta( if he gets realeased if not then use our 3rd in this deep draft

OLB-Mathis/Newsome

MLB-Jackson

MLB-Freeman

OLB-Brooks Reed

CB-David

SS-Adams/Brown

FS-Raheem Moore(FA) id prefer McCourty but hes probably too expensive

CB-Toler

KR-Jacoby Jones

This looks like a super bowl ready team to me. i know its a lot of wishing but if we can sign these six quality FA we can win a super bowl before Lucks next contract so i think this is the time to spend on front loaded contracts and go all in for impact players,for these signings to happen we would need to release Thomad, Louis, Walden(good but Reed is better) Cribbs, Richardson (if we bring in another RB hes gone) This would add roughly $12,230,000 mil to our already $42,000,000ish cap space

Toughts??

First I love the Hardison pick he is the one kid I really hope we get but I think we might have to take him in the 3rd. I am not sure he is a day one starter probably rotates in. Tough to see what you have going without the back ups.

 

You have Geathers starting over Sergio?

 

I really hope we don't take Abdulha in the 2nd I think Ajayi is the better fit for what we do and possibly the best RB in the class.

 

I hope we sign a number 2 at WR think Moncrief needs another year before he takes over for good.  If he is starting makes me think we don't have much behind him.

[ÅÐØNϧ 1]

Because they gutted the roster prior

 

 

Highly doubt Colts start 5 rookies

 

 

Then why did'nt you say that regardless of why, they have started 4 rookies in 2012 .

[Dark Superman]

Not bad, but I don't see Abdullah being there when we pick in the second. And the Colts need another big, proven WR. I don't like Moncrief as our 2. Not yet.

This is pretty much how I envisioned our lineup..

[Colts_Fan12]

If Redding retires there's a high chance a rookie starts

or they sign a FA?

[akcolt]

This is pretty much how I envisioned our lineup..

I like this vision not big on Coleman in the 2nd but if they make the rest of it happen  I can live with that.
