I only have one thing to say about him. He look fluid dropping back in zone.

 

Other than that.

 

Bad tackler

Super Low Motor

Weak Bulrush

Watch at 7:00 in the Clemson game, dude got pancaked by a RB. Then he waltzes towards a moving RB.

Runs slow

Gives up on plays

All I need to say avoid at all cost. Considering the dynamics of the 2 teams he played in charlotte and clemson, being one was an easy win, and one was a blockbuster game, de looks like he doesn't want to be out there.

 

I have zero tolerance for low motor guys.

Do you like any pass rushers?

Yes, Right Now my top 3 are

Tim WIlliams

Charles Harris

Tak Mac

 

Ryan Anderson is okay

 

Barnett is okay

I don't really like Charlton standing up. he somebody that would be good for us, if we can get a good pass rushing unit later. So this year, wouldn't get him unless he dropped to the third, which wont happened.

 

And Im not liking what I see from Hassan Riddick so far, but I have to watch more. He's fast, but at 6'1. I can't see him being successful at his size...but I gotta watch some more of him.

Fields is viewed by most as a Day 3 pick and a developmental guy. He has the physical attributes, but hasn't put it all together yet. I will agree that his motor is not what you want to see out of a top guy, but in the 5th, I think he could be worth it...

 

Riddick is my draft crush this year and is an animal. He won't be an edge rusher in the NFL just because of his size, but he'd be perfect as a WILL in our defense. His pass rushing skills are fantastic, he is an explosive athlete, and has amazing cover skills (since he came into college as a CB).

I like him too (Riddick), but at 15?  He's be an awesome second round pick, probably won't be there.

I'm curious to see his combine results. The biggest knock on him is no tape on him playing ILB other than the Senior Bowl, so you don't know exactly what you're getting, but I think watching him at Temple gives you a solid idea of his skill-set, which is all around amazing. I don't know if I could take him at 15, but if you think he'd be an absolute difference-maker and won't be there at your 2nd pick (there's NO way that happens), I think you may have to pull the trigger..

Like they say, once you're in uniform your draft number is meaningless.  If the Colts think he's the man, so be it.

      Colts have the 15th pick in the draft. (MERGE)

      By ColtStrong2013 · Posted

      There’s been a lot of comments made by Ballard lately that they are always planning a few years out, while the coach is pushing for players that can help now. So it’s a balance. He’s made comments that the goal is to protect and provide weapons for AR. The talent at the top of the draft seems like there could be a couple really good offensive lineman falling down to us, with a run on receivers and skill players. I don’t necessarily see that, I think there could be a run on qbs, tackles, and pass rushers with the obvious 3 receivers before we pick. That could potentially push all corners, as well as Bowers down to 15. But say, both corners and Bowers go top 15, who does that push out? Most likely a talented tackle. They can either trade back or take the highest rated player on the board, which would provide swing tackle depth, and a plan for if Smith is injured/isnt re-signed following 2025. Some are speculating it might be best to move Smith to guard in that scenario.

      I don't believe this would ever happen as the price would be much too steep. The only way this is even a remote possibility is if the Pats do not like Maye or McCarthy . Then this would also need the QB needy teams to feel the same as NE . The value of Maye , if he's a franchise QB is multiple firsts. IMO , you can't give up that for a WR

      Happy Draft Day to the folks who are in Indiana! (And east coast) lol. If this actually happens today I don’t know what I would do. Pipe dream or not, I’m READY for this draft to start!

      Kirk did have the Vikings at the top of the division in the 2022 season at 13-4. He was injured last year. Oh well have fun with your new QB.    You act like I don't know Vikings football, comical because I like the team and follow them a lot. You and @NFLfansay Kirk doesn't know situational football. In 2022 he was the best situational QB in the league. Vikings were 11-0 in games decided by 3 points or less. It is because Kirk handled most situations right. You don't go 11-0 in games 3 points or less and not be a smart QB.

      Maybe I am the one who will end up with egg on his face but I just don’t get why people think the Colts are actually going to draft an olineman with their first pick.  Nelson and Kelly returned to their pro-bowl playing status.  Raimann looks to be a very good young left tackle and the Colts have made it pretty clear they see Smith as one of the most underrated tackles in football.  They aren’t drafting a right guard in the first round, Nelson was exception, and even then Fries held his own at right guard last year.  They aren’t going to draft a guy who isn’t going to start next year either in the first round.  The starting oline is probably the least of their worries going into this draft.
