OffensivelyPC Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Depends also on whether the Raiders win. Tie breaker would be common opponents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COLTS449 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Losing the last 2 games would have moved us up to maybe what? 10th or 12th? Myles Jack territory for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR Indy Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 First pick RG, Second Pick a rush OLB, Third Pick Right Tackle. This draft I do not want to hear about the best available player. All I want to hear about is the best available pass blocker, or pass rusher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defjamz26 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 18th isn't bad. It's a hell of a lot better than 26th where you're basically just scooping up the leftovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR Indy Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Positions that are OK, 1. QB (Luck should be healthy and ready to go) 2. WR (No need to draft another receiver Ty, Donte, Dorsett, & (Pratice Squad Carter), if you bring AJ back bring him back as a TE/WR----No Coby F. (he can not block) 3. DL is trending in the right direction. The tackles made by our average ILB's was pretty high. Positons that need to be address 1. O-Line 2. O-Line 3. Pass Rush OLB 4. Corner Back opposite of V. Davis 5. RB 6. doesn't matter 7. doesn't matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the added irony is TODAY Fleener caught a TD of about 65 yards. THAT'S WHY we drafted Coby Fleener. I don't know why this is hard for so many, but it apparently is......

Lol yeah just making sure so lemme verify...keep injured prone Allen who's liability to be on the field affects his actual in game blocking > fleener who actually produced in the receiving game and is an average blocker? At this point he surpasses Allen due to Allen never contributing to nothing but sitting on the bench tho bro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK man keep Fleener, but it is hard for Fleener to catch these type of TD passes (which is few and far between) when the guy that is suppose to be throwing him the ball is hurt on the sidelines because of a lack of blocking. I say it again I WAS WRONG KEEP FLEENER. Sign him to whatever he will demand. But I hope they draft someone that will block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about if Luck have better blocking. Then Luck has more time to find Coby. And the more times he (COBY) is targeted, the more dangerous this team will be. The better this team is the more play-off games this team should play next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BProland85 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Welp after a vastly disappointing season Indy still doesn't get great draft position. My hope now is that somehow Jaylon Smith falls to them due to injury concerns and he ends up being their ILB of the future. I'd also be happy with CB Mackensie Alexander if he lasts. The OTs available there wont be worth a 1st round pick in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loudnproudcolt Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Rams lost, so we draft 18th spot. If we would have lost today, we would have drafted in the 12th spot. Big move down. I know they wanted to win for pags though. If anything it should say to Irsay Grigson is the problem, not pags! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The better this team is the more play-off games this team should play next year. If college offenses weren't so gimmicky drafting linemen wouldn't be such an unpredictable science. As it is it is a total shot in the dark with them. And Fleener has shown some promise, but is he the tight end of the future? I'm gonna have to say no. He still makes some ponderous drops, and the guy literally broke his first tackle last week. He has all the physicals to be a star TE, but I just don't think it's going to happen for him. Keep him over Allen, for sure. I've never cared for Allen. But if we get a chance at a better TE, it may be worth taking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loudnproudcolt Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I hate to think about tanking, but regardless, just one more loss, today would have given us the 12th pick or 13th position. We would have flipped coins with Oakland at 7-9. Still, I believe Jaylon Smith will be there at 18th since he will not be available next year until October at the earliest. Many teams need players immediately. I would be willing to wait on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOTT Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 The problem with Fleener is he is a pass catching TE who isn't much more effective than Jack Doyle on short routes. Catch ball....get hit....go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
