COLTS449 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 What a joke. This kid better be a stud from week 1 on for me to be happy about it. There's a handful of kid's who could have been day 1 starters. Is TJ Green one of them? I don't see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CR91 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 good coverage safety, but misses too many tackles. Would rather have had bell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Horseman Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Pagano pick. Not in a bad way but they discussed pro days after Kelly pick and this makes sense based on that. Not judging way or other right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COLTS449 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I'm in break s*** mode. Billings? Day 1 starting NT. Nope we want a developmental safety who may be good or may be out of the league in 4 years. Yep. That genius Grigson. I tell you what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueCollarColts Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I don't know about this pick... Do they have no confidence in Geathers? Green seems like an in the box safety, same as Geathers.. Unless they think they can turn him into a good ball hawking safety with his speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about it It doesn't matter as everyone knows PFF is the be all and end all of all that is football? Lol, a bunch of self proclaimed Brits that have NO NFL experience, that are selling snake oil so you can dominate your fantasy league, are way smarter than any actual NFL Executive. Press Corner seems to be his eventual landing spot according to people who actually get paid to speak about this type of thing? We shall see?

Manning1887 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I am really surprised we passed on Andrew Billings. There must be something wrong with him. Something off the field or something we are not aware of. It seems like Green is an interesting developmental prospect at corner. Great size and speed, but destined for special teams this year.

21isSuperman Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2635020-tj-green-nfl-draft-2016-scouting-report-grade-for-colts-rookie "The national championship game highlighted an issue that shows up every week for Green—he’s a bad tackler. With 13 missed tackles in 2015, Green ranks as one of the worst tackling safeties in the country. And it’s not a physical issue, but a want-to issue.

coltsfanatic24 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Grigson reached because Alexander was off the board. I didn't like that he traded back or this pick. He's fast and has range but can't cover. Should have went with Billings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antipatriot Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I really liked our first round pick but that being said I will hold true judgement on that pick and this one until I see them on the field in an NFL game. So many picks bust and so many unexpected players become the perfect fit and household names. This discussion although fun is all speculative as we like all the so called "experts" really don't know how these guys will work out until the season. We kept our GM and Coach so now I have to have faith they are doing the right thing until the tape in an NFL season says otherwise.

Aaron Sanders Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Billings would be nice but from everything I have read and watched on him he was basically Chapman all over again. Didn't penetrate just held his ground was never a threat to the QB. We got rid of Chapman so really do we just want to sign the same player again?
