danlhart87 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 WINNERS Bucs Trading down to 12 gaining 2 2nds and getting one of the best interior DL to fix their Run D Colts Getting 3 2nds to go along with the best OG prospect the last 15+ years Cardinals Trading up to get the best QB in the Draft IMO. He will be the starter by week 3. Packers Landing a future 1st and still getting one of the top Corners in the Draft LOSERS Steelers Taking a 3rd to 4th Rounder is insanity Saints Losing a future 1st for a project DL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coltsfanforlife12 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 You gotta add the Browns into the mix. This is going to sound homerish but the way this draft has played out plays right into the colts hands. The prospect of potentially adding Hernandez to Nelson and Kelly is tantalizing!! Landry and Jackson both being available!! DJ chark and Nick Chubb!! I’m so pumped for tomorrow!! 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoshinator Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Another loser is Miami. Cards traded right over them for Rosen. They get a guy in Fiztpatrick who isn't great at any one position and is just more uncertainty on their team. Derwin James or a CB would of been better IMO. They may not get Rudolph either next round. Biggest losers so far IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluefire4 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I guess the Steelers can be seen as losers because they probably could have gotten him in round 2, but I do think Terrell Edmunds is a round 2 talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defjamz26 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Seahawks are losers. Biggest reach in recent draft memory. You pass over Guice and Michel for Penny? They don’t draft a lot in the first round, but when they do it’s a bad pick. Schneider shouldn’t be around in another year or so. The Seahawks haven’t hit on anything noteworthy in the draft since 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not we would have been picking at #3. Sorry if you took my comment as an insult, I just said what was on my mind at the time. I also understand picking a guard is not a "sexy" pick but in the state our offensive line has been in for quite a while well, it's been offensive not in a good way. Being rated at the bottom of the league in QB sacks, hits and injuries to our QBs has not been a pretty sight. Add the fact we have also been rated at the bottom of the league in the running game says a lot about what shape this O-line has been over the last few years. Picking Nelson is a great start to fix those problems. He wont be the total fix but just a cog in the wheel. No matter who we picked it was imperative we got a starter from day one. Not a player who needed work to become a starter. What happens tonight is where Ballard has to make picks that will be the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2006Coltsbestever Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I think we were winners on Day 1. We got the 2nd best player in the Draft talent wise and much needed help on the O.Line. We need to protect #12. We could afford to take Nelson because we have 3 2nd Round picks we can use on Defense if we want. If we only had 1 2nd Round pick than I could see people being upset that we didn't go Defense at #6 but Chubb was gone anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelson is a very good player but no guard is worth the number 6 pick. I also don't think our line is as bad as it's made out to be, we throw the deep ball more than anyone in the league and our running game was decent despite old man Gore and Chudd running the most predictable offence in the league. I think the value to trade down or pick up a very good LB is better than a elite G, the only LB now worth one of our 2s is Malik and I'm not sold on him but Hernandez, Williams or Daniels would have been great Gs in round 2. Tonight will be the big night for Indy of the draft I agree, Hopefully we can get someone like Landry Hurst and Josh Jackson and I'll be a much bigger fan of the draft.

It's been bad but only accentuated but our philosophy. Adding a good guard which we could get in the 2nd or 3rd round plus the LB in the 1st is better than Nelson and what's left at LB. Losers might have been too much for the Colts but I really think we missed the boat on not trading down or just picking Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoose Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Sorry but Nelson was a rock solid pick. You who criticize the pick and suggest trading down to 12 for a couple of additional 2nd rounders are missing a key point: you had no idea what would be left at 12 but there was a good chance that the Colts believed the top players would be gone by then. They were in great shape for day 2 of the draft. Without a killer offer you don’t make that trade. You take a guy that many draft pundits called the top player in the draft and the best O lineman to come down the road in years. I’m very happy with the pick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
