Oh god

[21isSuperman]

I really like this pick.  I'm curious as to how we're going to use him, whether it be RT or RG.  He's got great length and quick feet, so I think he could fit into either spot.

[MarquisJ]

love this pick goog job grigs 

[FanFromtheWasteland]

is this a bad thing?

[BlueCollarColts]

Instant starter?

[CR91]

Great pick. Our line is set now.

 

AC mewhort Kelly Clark reitz

If they value Luck's life at all they'll put him at guard.

[jbaron04]

Well I'm not upset , 

Lt- constantzo 

Lg- mewhort 

C-Kelly

Rg-Thornton 

Rt- TBD 

[21isSuperman]

Protect Luck.  A starting OL of Kelly, Mewhort, Castonzo, Clark, and Reitz/Good could be a solid group for several years

We needed line depth

[jvan1973]

Rated in the top 75 by most of the draft gurus

Good be alot of competition at RT and Rg if they gonna let them all compete and play the best 5 

[MTC]

Where's our pass rush though?

[oldunclemark]

 Very glad we concentrated on the O-line

[Dustin]

 

[BlueCollarColts]

Costanzo/Mewhort/Kelly/Clark/Good

 

my prediction 

[VaAllDay757]

Looking good so far when it comes to depth we had too many injuries last season good pick

[CantBeStopped]

Nfl.com had him rated as a 1/2 round pick. With a qoute from an nfc scout saying this guy will do big things in the league. I lov this pick. PROTECT LUCK

[Valpo2004]

Like the pick.  Could play RT or guard for us.  Looks like they are actually taking the whole protect 12 thing seriously.

I'm still not ready to give up on Thornton,  is Clark a ready player or is he like someone who needs time to develop etc...

[NorthernBlue]

Well the Oline is set for at least the next few seasons.

 

AC-Mewhort-Kelly-Reitz-Clark?

[BlueShoe]

Love drafting O-Linemen. 

 

Keep bringing them Grigs!

 

We keep this guy who wears #12 clean, and we will win a lot of games.

[Combsey]

Ok I admit I have never heard of this guy. That being said I am not crying or bi.... but I just wanted to point out an observation for some reason we always seem to pass over name players on the board who could contribute immediately for wait for it and the Colts with the blank blank pick of the draft select Bob the water cooler guy. I DONT GET IT. Shouldn't we be picking some of these guys up as UDFA's?

[Lef]

Putting together an elite oline.  I like it. Got to dominate in the trenches. 

[MPStack]

nfl.com has him rated 1st or 2nd round grade with Pro Bowl potential. Excellent value pick IMO. 

[PrincetonTiger]

If he can become a good run blocker the Colts could have a keeper

You never know on the right side if Thornton and Goode might win the jobs 

[BlueShoe]

SOURCES TELL US

 "He's going to end up being big time in our league. He's got elite foot quickness, he's long and he's smart. He'll keep getting better once he gets to a pro offense and away from that stuff Texas Tech does and he'll become one of the top five tackles in our league." -- NFC personnel director

I will say. Our OL should be better fingers crossed and all that jazz

It went in the 2nd round to other teams..>.<  But can't complain about our trade, adding a 4th and 7th and moving back a few spots in the 2nd was a good move after all the so called 'good pass rushers' were gone.

But on Clark,...darn good pick...he'll be moved back to guard most likely.

That is a need but the offensive line is much bigger need now plus we still have younger players like moore and irving helping that defense get better they haven't played a whole season with us yet

[aReggie7]

I really like this pick. It is going to allow the Colts to maximize the potential of the offense.

 

He appears to have some athleticism to go along with his size.

 

If Good is as good as Irsay/Grigson think then this line looks really promising!

[jchandler7]

Not a fan of TJ Green in the 2nd but love this pick. Clark will be a day one starter at either guard or tackle, he can play either position well. Our O-line should be much improved.

[CantBeStopped]

I love how grigs never takes the big names in mid rounds. It has worked out so far. Billings wants to play in a 4-3. Jack mewhort. Who had us taking that no name in the 2nd ?! Turned out pretty darn good

OH, had a funny thought, Maybe Grigs plans on taking Mathis up on his offer,...making Green add 30-40 lbs and glueing him on Mathis' buttocks?....lol

[Combsey]

Hey apparently I am the only one who hasn't heard of this guy if its a good pick up hey great. I agree keep Luck healthy. I will continue to pray for a defense in the future lol. So it sounds like most are predicting him sliding i  at right guard is that right?
