Wow....no need to get rude. So what of Ballards picks over the last 3 years do u seeing as being star material based on their early performances in the league??

 

Hooker, Nelson, Leonard, Mack, and a whole bunch of starting caliber players that are super young with high ceilings.

Like I said,  I don't count Nelson and even Hooker.  They were high picks.  Leonard is average and so over rated by this board.  I will give u Mack.  I am waiting for one of these 2nd round pick to develop into a star.

I mean, you can't bash Ballard's drafting and say his first round picks don't count. Grigson's first round disasters sure counted...

 

Leonard isn't overrated by any means. He was deservedly all pro last season and was even injured most the season. He's struggled at times this season and today was no exception, but he's still the leader of this defense... and better than we have had at linebacker in a long time. 

 

Turay was on pace to being an elite pass rusher. Well on his way. Hopefully he bounces back in a big way.

Your leader got 2 penalties that could have arguably cost us the game? He cant cover to save his life and gets blown off the ball. He is loud and brings a lot of attention to himself.  I think he has developed into a me player this year with all the hype he got last year.  He just strikes me as being ego centric.  I could b wrong but that's just the way I feel

I've been very impressed with Mack.

I understand that thinking. But I think it's more of him bringing energy at all times, which he does and what the franchise wants and needs from him. We just need him to be the playmaker from last year.

He should less time dancing round the field and focus more on making the correct decision with regards to the flow of a play

    • To me, it’s also a non- story, but for a different reason.     Because Ryan Kelly, classy guy that he is, has chosen to make it a non-story.  No complaining.  No running to the media to try to generate sympathy.   No hold out OR hold in where you show up but tell the team you won’t practice without a new contract.   He could’ve done any of them.  He chose to do none of them.     I think Kelly is a classy guy.  easy to see why he’s voted a team captain, and I think the union rep.  I also think the Colts under Ballard are filled with classy guys who are easy to root for.  Honestly, it one of the biggest reasons I’ve stuck around since Luck retired.  It’s a fun team to cheer for.    So I like the team, the coaches,  the front office, the owner and the city.   Hope to make it to Indy one day to meet as many of you as I can.   
    • No worries.   Wasn’t making fun of you.  If I had one dollar for every brain cramp moment I’ve posted here, I’d be rich!      It’s all good.  
    • I'm very interested in Carlie's as well.  I'm just not sold on our starting LB core.
    • I also forgot to say I think Buffalo will also have a down year. 
    • Yeah North.....maybe I got confused about the Pittsburgh Pirates playing in the central.  But I think before realignment there were only 3 divisions, I think.. Like the Colts and Dolphins played in the East, the Raiders and Broncos played in the West and the Steelers and Brownies played in the Central.  But yeah my mistake the Steelers currently in the North division.
