I could really see ballard

Trading Brissett to move up in the 1st round. With this draft being so deep on the dline moving up to snag a stud would be ideal. Let’s look at some of the teams in the teens that might be interested.

 

Cincy @ 11 (dalton wearing out his welcome)

miami @ 13 (hiring former pats coach)

washinton @ 15 (smith might not be ready for season)

 

So packaging our 26th and brissett to move up to pick 13-15 would be a smart move imo. It wouldn’t cost us picks. Jacoby is gone after this year anyway might as well get something for him. I would rather do this than trade him for a 2nd or 3rd rounder.

I am, high on trade value for Brissett, but dont think he moves us 10 spots.

 

I see him more of getting an additional mid to early 2nd, (and we give up our 3rd or 4th as well)

 

I think he may fetch a 3rd (maybe a mid to late 2nd) by himself 

 

Who knows

 

There is talent in round 2......

Before the season I thought there was a good chance the Colts trade Brissett this offseason. Now i'm not so sure.

 

The Eagles are likely to move on from Wentz or Foles this offseason. The Ravens are likely to move Flacco. Plus, there will likely be a couple QBs draft in round 1. I think the availability of other QBs and additional QBs draft will drive down the return you can get for Brissett.

 

It might be at the point where you keep him and if he signs elsewhere in 2020 so be it.

Those are some great points

Although Brissett did an "ok" job for us when Luck was down, I just dont see a team willing to do that. He hasn't done enough (shown anything). He's a backup in this league. Period. Trading him for a 2nd rounder may be a stretch but a 3rd...definitely. IMO

I don't think teams are going to be hot on the trail of joe flacco.  If I were a team like the Dolphins are Skins, I would rather take a flyer on Brisset than a declining flacco.

I was thinking something similar but it was trading up with our first and one of our seconds/third for point value. Then throwing Brissett on top of it to make up for them moving back so far. Now this would have to be an absolute blue chip player, but that is what we need.

 

According to the draft chart we can get to pick 11 (Cincy) with pick 34. Around 15 - 16 (Washington and Carolina) with pick 58. Pick 89 in the third would get us to Pittsburgh 20th pick. 

 

Obviously the closer to our pick the less likely we use Brissett.

 

Here is the draft pick value chart on draft tek with our current picks illuminated

If Ballard Loves someone higher up in the draft this is the time to go after them.
And if Brissett is coveted in the area that you are talking about, he might have to go.  We Need a stud DT.

    • @2006Coltsbestever @NFLfan   Kirk has been treated much better and with much more respect than Wentz was treated in Indy. And was showed with Love and truckloads of money in Minnesota, and was defended constantly with much more ferocity by Vikings fans than people defending Ballard in Grievances thread.    it'd be crazy to think of injustice against Kirk for a few minority who criticize his play.    We're Going back and forth on Kirk debate which will go on for eternity, but I struck Gold when I saw recently @Superman explaining how he felt watching Wentz playing with other teams before he got to Indy and how it felt watching him play for Colts when you're emotionally invested with the franchise.    There's no other way to perfectly describe Kirk Cousins' career and his QB play.   For every fan around the NFL, especially for fantasy football fans, Kirk will be a hero and am above average QB. But, when you're emotionally invested in your favourite franchise and Kirk plays QB for your team, you would come close to understanding how excruciatingly frustrating his play and smartness and game awareness, that all contributes to team missing playoffs many years and even when they qualify, no one sees Kirk as a threat in playoffs. Ever. Until he plays for your team, you won't realize that, and I totally understand.    Anyway, happy to pass on that frustration over to Falcons fans, they'd know soon. First of all, Kirk takes at least a season or two to trust his OL, even if you put an elite line and weapons around him, and it's all in his head. I'm going to sit back and read Falcons forums for Fun in 2024 Season! Good Times! 
    • I have no idea how it will all shake out, but I have my popcorn ready.
    • There are no owners in the NFL that are perfect people. Some owner's demons are more public, some not so much, but they all have them. There's much more to the free agency issue and the Colts than most are aware of. There are a lot of intangibles most will never consider. That said, there is more to almost every aspect of any organization that most will ever be aware of. Those are often the things that matter most.  
    • You can't measure what is "right" in a vacuum, or just by "feel". It takes so much more than that. The Colts front office performance is judged in relationship with all the other teams in the NFL. Just trying to objectively align the different perspectives of the scouting and coaching staff requires more sophisticated evaluation methods than what we saw in the video.   It doesn't give me a warm fuzzy feeling, but I understand this is the way a lot of organizations work.
    • https://www.stampedeblue.com/2024/4/1/24118330/i-pity-the-fool-mock-draft     Trade Colts 2nd round (440)   For   Packers pick 58 and 91 (456)   Packers select Zach Frazier C West Virginia 6'2 314lbs Logic: Packers replace Jon Meyers who gave up 5 sacks and had a pff grade of 55.8   Colts trade pick 58 and Kwity Paye   For   Saints Marshon Lattimore CB 27 years old and a conditional 2025 4th (depending on snaps could be 3rd) From Over the cap The team trading for Lattimore would take on his contract as is. They would have the decision to either pick up the option to defer the cap charges or to simply take all of the hit in 2024. Here is the cost on the cap if the team picks up the option in the contract:   Year Salary Cap Charge Dead Money 2024 $15,000,000 $12,000,000 2025 $18,000,000 $0 2026 $18,500,000 $0 2027 (void) $0 $0 Lattimore has no guaranteed money in his contract after 2024 so there is nothing that would lock a team into him beyond this year. Colts Logic: We wanted some experience in the secondary. We wanted a shutdown corner. So we give the Saints a offer they can not refuse. In the first 2 rounds we address most of our defensive woes. Saints Logic: Saints are switching to a 4-3 defense this year and just let Michael Thomas walk. They have always been cap wizards but this may be the year to start a new with the changes listed above. Lattimore has only played 17 games these past two seasons and even though he's a top 12 CB when healthy he has been dinged up. Kwity Paye can start at DE until Chase Young is healthy.
