    • This is one very big reason we have to hit on the draft. Because guys we draft do want to stay.  So growing our own is very important. 
    • Hypothetically, on the flip side, let’s talk a scenario for us giving up No.15. If The Chiefs want Bowers as Kelce’s successor, and are willing to swap first round picks and give up a future 1st, would you give up No.15?
    • Here are some Matt Harmon "Reception Perception" charts for the top receivers:       And here's the best of them... look at this one for Rome:     According to Harmon Odunze is the first receiver he's ever charted that has completely green route tree everywhere. He runs every and he get gets open on every single route.     BTW MHJ's chart is not as impressive, but he mentions he was doubled the most out of any receiver in this draft class and his chart is still really really good.   
    • This is spot on. Small market, and people want to think a St Elmo's steak, the combine and Manning's legacy is enough for people to want to just come to Indy to play. We don't have the night life, climate, roster or tax breaks to incentivize anyone to come here.  So the only way to do it is money.  We would automatically have to mark up every offer we want to make by 5-10% to have a chance at most of the top guys.  And the unfortunate reality of first tier free agents is that their value already gets marked up 20% to that players actual worth, so Ballard is probably out before the real negotiations are even taking place. We can afford to do that move for like ONE marquee player when the roster is ready....but not now, not on a good player who hit free agency because their former team didn't find them important enough to keep them.  We can never fall back on the fact that a we can lure a player here because of external factors.....because those will typically work against us. There was extensive discussion about this on page 48 of this thread. 
    • Yeah, his athleticism is from another planet.     To bad he doesn't believe in it(anything outside of the Earth). That media availability at the combine, didn't help his draft stock.
