OLD FAN MAN Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 31 minutes ago, COLTS449 said: If we picked him to play CB then Grigson is an even bigger *. There's better corners available and Rashard Robinson AKA one of the best CB's in this class could be had in the 4th or maybe even the 5th. This kid best be shocker. And by that I mean come in and freaking ball out from week 1 on. I care about us winning NOW. Year by year. I want NOW players. I mean. Bad pick. What a joke of a man Ryan Grigson is.

Gavin Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Day 3 pick at best just taken in the 2nd round to me. I was good with the first pick but I think this one was quite honestly a pick that could have been had later on. He has very little production. Was quite awful last year in coverage. I love the height and speed without a doubt but that's it. I would have went Byard at S........I will say I like Greens ability to blitz out of the slot and Return ability Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't really wanting us to draft him at 18, but we filled a MAJOR hole. We finally have a really good Center. This TJ Green pick I just don't like man. I'm just one of those fans who goes wild when we win. Or get mad as hell when we lose or make a bad move in the draft/FA. Â So let me get this straight. You're calling our center, who hasn't played a down yet in the NFL, really good but our DB we just drafted, who also hasn't played a down yet in the NFL, is a bad move. I understand about being a realist, we could have done better than Green, but at the same time maybe not. Â No one knows how these picks are going to pan out. So I'll wait until the season begins to make proper judgement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPStack Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 2nd ranked FS on cbssports board, 51 overall ranked prospect. Personally, I don`t mind the pick. The Edge class is weak IMO. I like the fact Grigs traded down and look for some small school Edge guys on the radar. (Holmes, Judon and Ochi) The Colts can`t address everything in one draft. Don`t panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People didn't really expect Darby to play that well. I really liked Darby last yr got in to it with a few on the board about him. I've seen some good things said about Green. I like the guy who writes on behind the steel curtain. He had Green going the top of the 2nd.  I will say he wasn't someone I was looking at. The 3 FS I liked were Simmons Davis and Thompson. I was pretty sure we'd take a FS. Pagano is supposed to be the DB guru. We worked out a lot of them. I'm going to trust him on this one.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stitches Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Quote Indianapolis Colts: T.J. Green, S, Clemson A- Grade The Colts moved down and obtained a prospect who could've been chosen a bit earlier than this selection. I like it. T.J. Green is highly athletic, and it's possible that he might be able to play cornerback in the NFL. If not, he can settle in at safety, which was also a huge need for the Colts entering this weekend http://walterfootball.com/nfldraftgrades2.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fackrell is a versatile linebacker, he can play inside and outside. He can rush the passer, but he is looking at being roughly 2 years removed from an ACL injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefire4 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I haven't read through any responses to see how many are complaining but I'm growing on the pick. Â Watched him against Alabama and he played deep so much that it was hard to see run stopping ability but it's obvious he has coverage potential. He also at least shows the willingness to stop the run but is a shoddy tackler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. "  Yeah that's interesting because I don't think he missed any tackles in the championship game. He had a handful of solid stops, including turning Henry back at the goal line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Adams probably has another year or two at the most. Â With Green and Geathers they probably have their safeties of the future. Â The fact Green might be able to give you a little more depth at CB in a pench is an added bonus. Â Very good pick IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
