Colts team most interested in Reagor

well his dad was here for our super bowl run why not get his son here as well lol I still want Pittman the most tho

[aReggie7]

I really like Reagor. He is faster than his 40 time indicates. He has big play ability.

 

He doesn't have a great size though and the Colts are lacking that in the offense now. (with the loss of both Funchess and Ebron at TE) If he reaches his potential though it will not matter.

 

 

[CR91]

Reagor won't get past the raiders imo

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

We really need a red zone threat that can contribute right away. If we could get that big body and Reagor in with those two picks that would be great. Rivers needs a big WR that can contribute right away. Not one that will sit on the bench and develop for a year.

[DownHillRunner]

What does Reagor do that Campbell cannot do? Campbell's 40 was faster than Reagor's as well. I see the exact same player. I feel like this team already have enough receivers like Reagor. If you want Reagor you better draft Higgins, Pittman Jr, or Mims to go along with him. 

[BProland85]

If we got Reagor I would want us also to get a bigger body WR like Pittman or Bryan Edwards as well. 
 

In my opinion 34 is a bit too high for Reagor, and I think Ballard could even trade down from 44 a bit and still snag him. 

[Hoose]

I think he’ll be gone before 44. You want him, you take him at 34. He should be there. 

[EastStreet]

No thanks. 5-11.... we have plenty of small guys already.

If we don't take a WR that's 6-3 or more, I'll be disappointed.

Unless  we keep both picks in the second and draft him and someone with size.

Campbell and Reagor may look the same, but they are very different. Campbell is a true deep threat, whereas Reagor is a guy more along the lines of TY, getting open down low and making moves from there. Not to mention that, regardless of him being under 6 foot, he highpoints the ball as well as anyone in the class. Pinning him as a deep threat only is crazy. 
 

Also, Reagor struggled at the combine, but at his pro day, it is said he ran a 4.22. He came to the combine overweight and underprepared. He’s faster than Campbell on tape though.

I would also like to get a WR with size but I feel the need for different sizes at WR is sometimes overblown. At the end of the day a WR needs separation and hands. Those traits have proven to be by far the most important indicators for success.... So if they think Reagor is the guy then I'm on board. 

[Thunderbolt]

Get someone who's tall enough to catch a fly ball.

[Defjamz26]

I’ll pass.

 

How many sub 6 ft speedy “Z” receivers do we need?

[Coltivated]

You don't pass on great players. He will be great in the nfl. We wil regret passing on him

Right now though we have no one as a red zone threat. That is so important when you get down towards the goal line.

[bananabucket]

I will never understand why people get so caught up in having a perfectly complimentary group for THIS YEAR.  You take the better player, period.  Size and red zone ability would be great, but you dont force it.  That's how you end up with crappy players.  I'd be thrilled with Reagor.

[krunk]

I wouldn't mind Reagor.  He seems to be a pretty electric playmaker.

Reminds me of a taller mix of Tyreek Hill and Santana Moss the way he moves.

Looks like he could play multiple spots.  Seems to be very good on the deep ball,he makes contested catches, and I like the way he runs after the catch. 

 

We could get him and another big body receiver out the same draft.

 

5 foot 11 is not bad.  He's taller than TY.  More like Reggie Wayne size.

 

We need more playmakers.  Bites us in the butt everytime TY goes down.

 

Pick this kid up and then grab a guy like Van Jefferson to go along with him maybe.

I don't know about the catching portion, but he did good on all of the drills, fantastic on some of them. His bulking up can't be understated. He beat out plenty of "bigger" guys in the benchpress.

[funktacious2]

I'd rather have a bigger guy but if we took him at 34 I wouldn't say he isn't worth that. He's definitely electric and athletic. As others have mentioned I'd like it most if he were paired with someone else taller later. Maybe Tyler Johnson, Donovan PJ, Antonio GG, or Johnathan Hightower?

 

Also... and this will begin to trend a little toward blasphemy, but Hilton's contract is up after this season. He had 500 yards last season and 5 TDs. He made 14mil. He's my favorite offensive player to watch and of course he was injured. I hope and expect him to bounce back. But from a business perspective, I don't think it would be a bad idea to grab another guy who can share Hilton's skillset. Campbell could help be that guy, but we don't know and more speed isn't a bad thing.

[pacolts56]

Folks.... read thru these assessments from one of the better draft sights out there.....his height evidently is not a problem.

I’d have no problem with us drafting him.

Now you know who we had at QB last year.  TY couldn't have done too much to increase his stats with that kind of QB play as the year progressed.  Of course he was also injured for a couple games.  He will put up pretty respectable numbers with Rivers.   I do think it's time to start looking for his replacement due to his age creeping up though.  He's still got a little bit of time.  Definitely not done yet.

I think Parris Campbell can be Hilton’s replacement. He can play that Z position but also move inside when needed.

Ya but we really cant count on Campbell when he spends more time in the trainers room than on the field.

Small sample size guy. I'm not ready to write him off yet. Lets see if he stays healthy this upcoming season.

3 of the top 4 Redzone receivers last year are under 6' tall. The best in the league last year? Tyler Lockett 5'10" 180#

Very different O scheme, very different times/NFL, very different Ds, very different QB. In short, if that's what you want, you're not going to be happy with Reich....

 

We have plenty of small and fast guys if we wanted to use a bunch of 3 and 4 vert type plays. Guessing you don't really understand Reich's O, and the difference between that and the days of Tom Moore's O. And even in the Moore days, we still used a ton of flex TE (Clark), which was basically TE-lite or big X.

[stitches]

Reagor is my WR4. I think he's a 1st round talent easily and if he lasts until our pick I'd be ecstatic for us to draft him.

Maybe but there's nothing wrong with having multiple speedy receivers.  You can still have some size in the crew as well.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ballard did it.  Both players have NFL fathers who have helped them prepare for the pros.  I'm sure that's something Ballard would see as a plus.   We've had contact with both players.  I usually have a pretty decent sense for what Ballard may do.  I called the Banogu and Paris Campbell moves last year.

I disagree.  Campbell  is faster than reagor ob tape. The difference  is reagor is a little  shiftier.

Reagor plays nothing like Campbell.  For one Reagor is a much more polished  wr who can run more routes from the gate. The second thing is Reagor high points the football  like julio jones. Campbell  doesn't  do that. The only thing they have in common  is both are fast, but even then Reagor is better at making  sharp cuts. Campbell  just out runs everybody.

[BProland85]

Getting Reagor and Michael Pittman at WR in mid-later round 2 is my hopeful scenario for Indy after a trade down from 34.

I was just about to say the same thing. Great minds and all

If a WR is good, they can fit into any scheme. Yes, some may be better suited for certain plays... but Marvin, Reggie, Fitzgerald, Rice etc would find a way to thrive in any system.

Give me a WR based on talent over size any day. And Frank is a good enough offensive mind to fit a talented WR into the "scheme".

This is just his 3rd season as a HC, keep in mind.

Reggie and Marvin would absolutely be on the field together, but they'd be running Z and slot like TY and Campbell were supposed to last year.  Reich would still be looking for an X to run with them.
