I think everyone can agree that there are no options in Free Agency for Wide Receivers.  So I wanted to start a topic about what WR do you like in the draft.  There are several that I like in both the early rounds and later rounds.  I love Ceedee Lamb but just don't see him dropping to us at 13.

 

Michael Pittman Jr- USC

Chase Claypool- Notre Dame

Jauan Jennings- Tennessee

Antonio Glandy-Gold- Liberty

Justin Jefferson- LSU

Tee Higgins- Clemson

Henry Ruggs- Alabama

 

Alot of these guys that I like are Big Bodied WR and can run.  What are your thoughts?

I would prefer going DT Derrick Brown with the 13th overall pick, and then trying to acquire QB Jordan Love late in round 1 or with the 34th overall pick. I love CeeDee Lamb as well and if he made it to 13 and Derrick Brown didn't, I'd be all for getting him. 

 

Then I would be a fan of Justin Jefferson in round 2.

I think there could be options in FA.  Way to early to discard that option.  Funchess is already an option and there is a likelihood Robbie Anderson could hit the market.  Maybe Amari Cooper as well.  Other guys could get released too.  We are certain to draft one but FA is also still an option IMO.

My favorite outside of the top bunch is Tyler Johnson:

 

 

Same here. Just reminds of other top

WRs in the NFL right now...like Adams or Thomas.

 

I probably put a higher emphasis on college production than most...and this guy checks that box and then some. 

 

I would love to get Johnson and another top tier option and just forget about WR going forward.

I like Jauan Jennings and think he could he a really good WR, but his issues with getting kicked off the team (even though the next coach brought him back) are a concern for me. A lot will be riding on his interviews with teams. If Ballard feels good about him, I'd be all in.

Ballard should absolutely double dip at WR...with both picks occurring “somewhat” early. 

I'm definitely not opposed to double dipping at WR, but I think one in round 2 or 3, then another in the 4th or 5th would be a good idea. I guess it would all depend on how the board looked come draft day. There's some really solid WR's that will be available fairly late this year.

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

      The Buckner extension is a tell that Ballard is preparing for a possible trade. It could be climbing the draft order or trading for a veteran player along with his draft pick. Whatever it is, you know the decision will have a major impact this season.

      Another thing to note is the man had 17 tds on a team where he wasn't even the primary receiver. He did this with Nabers on the team. So imagine what that looks like in these games where teams want to double Pittman.

      He is genuine. What you see is who he is. Challenged in learning the trade through his father, he was wise to have guys like Polian to help him. He was lucky to draft Manning and his short stint with Luck. Hopefully his next break is Steichen and Richardson. He has given enough rope for Ballard to climb out of his past decision.  I hope his daughters are sorting things out to take over within the next 5 years.

      Year 25! Dr. T's Annual Colt's Draft Contest for 2024

      Final Rough Draft…   (Yes on trading up a few spots)   Round 1 - #15(trade up) A. Terrion Arnold-CB(ALA) B. Dallas Turner-Edge(ALA) C. Nate Wiggins-CB(CLEM)   *Unless Colts trade up to take top WR,  Defense needs more help all around. I think Bowers(Jets)/QMitchell won’t fall to 15 and Colts could trade up for Turner!   Round 2 - #46 A. Bralen Trice-Edge(WASH) B. Kool-Aid Mckinstry-CB(ALA) C. Braden Fiske-DL(FSU)   *Kool-Aid could maybe fall this far if teams were to still question his foot injury, and Colts should take him here if they go Offense rnd 1. I think Trice would be an absolute steal here even though his measureables weren't great at the combine. He was though one of the most productive Ends in the country last year. Fiske is a Bjern clone that I wouldnt want Colts to draft, but I can see them doing so.   Round 3 - #82 A. Malachi Corley-WR(WKU) B. Javon Bullard-S(UGA) C. Khyree Jackson-CB(ORE)   *Corley, I can see as a perfect fit for Colts here. He’s not a top level wr in this draft, but just under that level. Good YAC wr that reminds me a little of Garçon. I put Bullard/Jackson this rnd even though they may not fall this far, but Colts have visited with them.   Round 4 - #117 A. Audric Estime-RB(ND) B. Brenden Rice-WR(USC) C. Mason McCormick-OG(SDSU) *Most have Colts taking the LVille rb, but I would love them to take Estime! Even though Im a homer with ND players. He would be a great #2 rb behind our OL! Colts should also take a chance on Jerrys kid with hopes of some similarities of his pops!   Round 5 - #151 A. Zac Zinter-OG(MICH) B. Roger Rosengarten-OT(WASH) C. Luke McCaffrey-WR(RICE)   *McCormick/Zinter/Rosengarten would all fit well with OL depth here. Im not 100% sold on if Kelly will ever be at his best ever again, and I still dont like the depth at RG/RT. Smith needs to remain healthy all season long! This is an extremely important year to keep our QB healthy when in the pocket! Also, why not take a chance on a McCaffrey? Hopefully Luke can be as skilled as his brothers!   Round 6 - #191 A. Kitan Oladapo-S(OREST) B. Edefuan Ulofoshio-OLB(WASH) C. Tory Taylor-P(Iowa)   *Colts should continue their streak of drafting a player whose name we all cant pronounce correctly in this round! Also a perfect time to draft Punt God if Rigo continues to struggle!   Round 7 - #234 A. Jordan Travis-QB(FSU) B. Joshua Cephus-WR(UTSA) C. Frank Gore Jr-RB(SMISS)   *Travis would be a good replacement for Sam In practices!  Also, Cephus could be a steal, even though I think he’s had some serious off the field issues. Finally, Gotta try and get Frankie Jr unless the 49ers draft him!        I am all for the Colts bringing in any IU/ND players for udfas! Aaron Casey could be one, or even Gus Bradleys son at QB.

      Yeah i look at Ballard as a stingy guy when it comes to trading up. He does not want to pay a lot to move up and dont think he will.
