TouchdownMonkey Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 That's what I'm saying. Rb not so much but we need Moncrief replacement. Dj Chark would have been perfect we need a big body receiever opposite ty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Do you expect the whole roster to be fixed in one draft? Don't be unrealistic, please. Ballard just made it very clear that the trenches are being prioritized this offseason. TY, Rogers, Grant, Ebron and Doyle should be enough for this season in the pass catching department. RB and DB can still be addressed in the 4th and 5th round x2 (remember Hairston?). Colts will have to do without high picks at skill positions this year though. Just the way it is. Next season with FA and draft those positions can be the focus. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash7 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Also, this is a rebuild, so it’ll take more than this draft to address every need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little help will be found in the remaining rounds I'm afraid. Best to look towards next year. Hard to find true impact players on day 3. If we get one...count ourselves fortunate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Miller Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I think we have a decent stable of running backs that might even look better with the Oline we are building. I do think we need to draft a wr..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southside Hoosier Fan Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Good grief. If we don't pick Turay and Tywuan 2 rounds before we coukd have we could have stayed a Wr and an Rb or CB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCoop Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 CJ Anderson needs to be a priority now behind these new maulers on the inside. I'd also grab Callaway in Rd. 7 with the hope he can clean himself up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jet1968 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Games are won in the trenches. #1 playmaker set out last year because of very poor line play. I for 1 am ecstatic that the line is finally getting fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougDew Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 RB doesn't matter this year. Mack and Turbin with a vet cast off this summer will be fine. LB, CB, and WR are concerns. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shasta519 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Apparently those picks are coming next year. This draft is the definition of overdrafting for needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisticuffs111 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I kinda wish we would've stayed at 49 and taken a particular CB, but I'm pretty good with the picks so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next season with FA and draft those positions can be the focus. While I agree with strengthening the trenches, we definitely could use someone to step up along with TY. I like the two TE sets with Doyle/Ebron but someone else other than those three are going to have to step up. I'm not so sure Rogers or Grant will be that guy. I'm going to trust Ballard and withhold judgement until I see results, but I will say that I hope they address the skill positions in these rounds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nburgmei Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 There are still some good WR prospects left in the draft. Deon Cain, Allan Lazard, E. St. Brown. I'm happy with the trenches strategy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefire4 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Ballard did say he liked what was on the roster at running back, and that he'd be ok with TY Hilton, Ryan Grant, and Chester Rogers as his top 3 going into the season. I'm fine not adding anybody at running back this year, but if one of those 3 receivers go down I don't know who we turn to. Hopefully someone like Equanimeous St. Brown or Daesean Hamilton fall to our fourth round pick tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LockeDown Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Ballard said he was upset with our Oline last year, how we didn't measure up in a few games. Well, he's fixing that problem for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bleevit Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I think I'll wait for the finished product before making any overall judgements. I haven't seen any of the draft picks thus far that I just doubt. If CB had not improved the O-line this year and Luck gets hurt again, the folks on this site would have a hissy fit.
