I'm not even going to attempt to predict who the Colts retain at this point. But they should consider these players...

Free Agent Pick-ups

Scott Wells (GB) Center

I know they just signed Jake Kirkpatrick, who was a rookie we cut last year, but if Saturday leaves, this is a huge requirement for Luck's existence.

Eric Winston (HOU) Offensive Tackle

I can't believe Houston released this guy. Colts would be smart to pick him up and solidify the line.

Israel Idonije (CHI) Defensive End

Or

Cory Redding (BAL) Defensive End

I'm hoping the Colts can at least bring Jamaal Anderson back. One of these guys would be a huge upgrade on the D-line.

Robert Meachem (NO) Wide Reciever

He is a great young receiver that could be a dependable targer for Luck.

2012 NFL Draft

I'm basing these picks off of a 7 round mock draft from Matt Miller who I think is a great scout who doesn't just regurgitate ESPN's rankings or Mock drafts. This also includes a 3rd Rd pick from the Chargers for a Freeney trade.

1st Round : Andrew Luck - Stanford - QB

As if it was going to be anyone else?

2nd Round : Mohamed Sanu - Rutgers - WR

Andrew is going to need a WR to develop with. Sanu is incredible.

3rd Round : Harrison Smith - Notre Dame - SS

Harrison Smith is an under rated Strong Safety. I think there are enough players out there getting 1st - 2nd rd hype to take him into the 3rd round.

3rd Round (from Chargers) : Jayron Hosley - Virginia Tech - CB

This is our trade for Dwight Freeney. Jayron Hosley is a ball hawk. Solidify the secondary with Smith, Bethea, Powers and Hosley.

4th Round : Ladarius Green - LA-Louisiana - TE

Yes, I know he is no Coby Fleener, but Ladarius Green is the next best thing. This is a smart grab even if Tamme is resigned.

5th Round : Ryan Broyles - Oklahoma - WR

Another offensive weapon for Luck. Assuming Garcon and Wayne are both gone..the WR corps could be solid with Sanu, Meachem, Collie, Broyles

6th Round : Josh Chapman - Alabama - NT

I like Drake Nevis, but I don't know that he has the size for this 3-4 defense. Colts grab a big D-lineman here.

7th Round : Levy Adcock - Oklahoma State - OG

More protection for our new starting QB in a great OG from Oklahoma State.

This is a shameless plug in an attempt to get the tool seen by as many fans as possible. It's monitoring social media and tracking all the prospects and present it in a friendly way.

fourthandshort.org

Being the creator I would happily accept feedback and suggestions to make it better.

Thanks!

      Did you miss Buckner's new extension? The one with the large signing bonus and void years?

      I like Latu, but don't you think there's a significant number of teams that are scared off by his medical? And then a couple more who will downgrade him because of his age?

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

      By Jason_ · Posted

      yeah pretty much what I figured.  If they are going to start mixing up coverages and running more man coverage, then sure grab a CB in the first.  If they're going to continue being a mostly zone team regardless, then no, no round 1 CB.

      The mission is to build something that has us competing with the best of the best. This is a season for AR to get tuned up.  Who do you think will be the right guys on our roster now to take us to an AFC Championship game?  It's not Smith, Fries, and we likely can't get there with more than 2-3 of our current back seven.  I would offer Buckner to the Bears as part of a trade for 9. Eberflus wants to have a great D so maybe he bites.  Then hopefully trade back 2-3 spots for a good pick.  I'd love to come out of the draft with Latham and the Byron Murphy II. And come out of the draft with RG Bebe.

      I think he's a little overrated as a corner prospect. Doesn't mean I don't like him, I do. But I was hearing about how incredibly athletic he is, people were talking about him like he was a lockdown defender, then I watch him for a couple games and I don't see that. So at first I was pretty down on him. Then I went back and watched him with my expectations much lower, and I see what he has to offer.   He's definitely athletic, but not the standout, premier athlete people were making him out to be at first. Watching his high school basketball videos helped me contextualize his athleticism, there's plenty of burst there. He has some struggles flipping his hips and staying connected late in the down. He's feisty and physical, plays the run with enthusiasm, tackles well, and he has explosiveness. He's better in shorter areas when he doesn't have to try to keep up with a receiver with elite speed. I know he ran 4.43, but it wasn't a pro day, it was a private workout. I discount timed speeds at pro days, and definitely at private workouts. To me, he's closer to 4.5 than 4.4, and that's what I expected when watching him play.   To me, he's a safety/nickel prospect, not a boundary corner. And if he were looked at as a boundary corner, I think his arm length would probably disqualify him for the Colts, at least in the first round. And I think the Colts already view corner as a Day 2 position. He's said all the right things about playing multiple positions. And while I don't know how the new rules will affect kickoffs, I think it makes sense to have good options at returner, so that helps his stock as well. But I think the second round is the right range for him. If we drafted him, I think we still need a boost on the outside.
