Now that Every thing has settled down, something tells me that this will be the second best draft under Grigson. Geathers, Dorsett, Smith, and Anderson all have a ligament chance of being big for us.

 

I'd add Parry to that list as well, and I'm pretty interested to see what the Robinson kid brings to the table. But yeah, those 4 guys you mentioned will all be eventual starters, with Dorsett being thrown into the mix immediately.

I was one of the few happy with Dorsett because I had a very high opinion of him all the back from early March. I admit I didn't know a lot about D'Joun Smith, but he is looking like a solid pick. Henry Anderson was someone I was mocking in the 3rd round for us in a lot of mocks. people were telling me he wouldn't fall, but I'm glad he did. Geathers is looking good and I love the Robinson pick. Parry, Herrara and Good I'll keep an eye on. We could have a very competitive team this year on Offense and Defense. Possibly a Super Bowl run!

Adding to this, I believe once the pads are on Josh Robinson will bowling ball his way to the #2 back and Donald Celiscar will make the final CB roster. This should shape up (fingers crossed) to a very good draft class.

Posting with my phone and using Swype is also the reason some of my post are full of errors. But back on topic. It sounds like Geathers had the best chance of becoming a starter at some point his rookie year, especially given the lack of depth there. Sounds like they're is more excitement for him than for Lowery.

Anderson and Parry seem like future starters for the line because they're picking things up fast and have the skill.

I refuse to believe anything I hear or read. I will only believe what I see. Trent richardson was supposed to be a bowling ball of butcher knives... 

 

Still accurate: Just like a bowling ball, he has no vision and his sole existence is colliding into things. He had butcher knives, but the handles were pointing outward.

    • I almost spit my coffee out reading this a few times, lol!  I love sarcasm and I especially love it when there is some truth to it!  Well played Sir!
    • I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him. 
    • if he is healthy and they make the playoffs in spite of, say, Houston being the 1 or 2 seed in a loaded afc, you think Irsay would contemplate firing him? That would mean we took another step forward and AR proved he could stay healthy and play ball. I don’t see his seat being hot in that scenario at all. I see the organization being fired up with that and ready to hit the offseason hard to take the next step forward. 
    • Hmmm.   ”Healthy excuses will be hard to come by.”    Really?   Richardson, who had less than a thousand snaps in college, then had roughly 200 snaps his rookie year.  There’s one.   And Houston has Stroud who had a great rookie year.  Aren’t most media predicting Houston and JVille ahead of Indy this year?  That’s two without any trouble.     I just think insisting on a division title because a fan thinks it’s time doesn’t stand up to much scrutiny.   Sorry, just my two cents…. And often not worth that much.
