Late to the party, but Roberto Aguayo, K. lol! He was a 2nd round bust. You have to see it coming.

 

nah, I'd say the GM that drafted a K in the 2nd round is the bigger bust than the kicker himself lol

Well here's hoping Good is better than good at RT.

He better shine, you don't take a pick that high on the offensive line and expect him to be a bust

So is he a bust if he doesn't immediately shine as a first year rookie? Is that how that works?

Year? He gets three games around here. His game as RT still counts.

IMHO, Smith is ready to take the RG spot now, and he IS going to be a good player.

Also, Good was forced to play injured when Haeg went down, and he still wasn't healthy against the Texans, but played solid anyway.

Finally, IMHO, the Colts will still draft an early Tackle and most likely a later G/C.

I'll tell ya what, right now I'm not sitting on Good for getting hurt this year...heck, seems like every other player on the dang roster is/has been.  But for a 7th rounder that absolutely no-one in the football world other than Grigson knew about, he has to be the best pick he's ever made.  Maybe not the most talented, healthy, ect.  But in terms of where a player is drafted, what people knew about, he has outperformed everyone else in terms of expectations.  While most of his draft picks are gone, he's still here. And the past 2 years, when he's been able to perform, and asked to, he's done a stand up job.  If we pick a solid RT in next years draft, he'll end up being our long term swing.

Not at all! I would expect him to start playing and get better and hopefully make his high draft pick worthwhile. That's all I'm saying
