tvturner's Mock

[tvturner]

Colts Mock:

 

First and only mock from me for this season. I expect Ballard to move out of 35 because I doubt Ringo will be available. 

 

35 (550) to Washington for 47 and 97 (542)

 

R1P4: Will Levis QB Kentucky

The 4 QBs have been talked about all offseason, most everyone should know the pros and cons of them so I’ll keep this pick short.

 

I’ve felt Levis fits the Colts the most out of the 3 QBs that should be available at 4.

 

He’s highly instinctual, loved by teammates, a great leader, has a fantastic arm, has experience in NFL playcalling, and I think his mechanics can be ironed out with good coaching. 

 

His ‘22 film wasn’t otherworldly by any means and the blame partially falls on his shoulders but if you watch his offensive line play, it’s reminiscent of Luck trying to play behind Grigson’s failure of a trench.

 

Whoever the QB is, they’ll get my support.

 

R2P47: Julius Brents CB Kansas State

Brents is one of my favorite guys in the class and I hope he makes it to this pick. 

He’s 6’3” with 34 inch arms and and had fantastic testing at the combine

 

He’s played in both man and zone schemes during his stints at Iowa and KState.

Ball skills are great, he’s aggressive at the catch, knows how to move his feet in zone, and is a very willing run defender.

 

Add more physicality and reps to his press-man ability and I think he’s got a chance to be an absolute stud in the league.

 

He’d slide in perfect to play OCB at the strong side of Bradley’s defense

 

R3P79: Andrew Vorhees OG USC

5 years of experience on the OL at every position except for center

He’s out for blood when it comes to run blocking and him paired with Nelson should make JT’s job much easier.

He’s aggressive, always looking to knock somebody over, finishes plays, knows how to use his hands to get defensive linemen off their game, can adjust well after first-punch strikes and is an anchor on the line.

 

He has below average arm length which could prove to work against him when working against NFL tier defensive linemen.

 

R3P97: Tyler Scott WR Cincinatti

Tyler Scott in my opinion is a junior version of Jalin Hyatt.

He’s a burner on the field, knows how to track go-balls, and knows how to navigate open fields due to his experience in playing running back. 

He’s only 5’10, 180 and his arm size is average. Catch radius and run blocking aren’t going to be strengths of his in the league. He’s also had issues with drops in college.

 

R4P106: Jaylon Jones CB Texas A&M

Corner is a position I think Ballard needs to double dip in.

He’s a bigger prospect and plays that way when it comes to physicality at the catch. He’s not afraid to get dirty in the run game and he’s going to play a lot better on a defense that runs zone more than man.

 

His footwork is very raw, his hips aren’t as fluid as they can be, and his long speed is an issue.

If the coaches can get his mechanics corrected, I’d expect him to be CB4 in his rookie year.

 

R5P138: JL Skinner S Boise State

I think this team truly needs a top end guy back there but I can only dream about Budda being sent to Indy and while I don’t think Skinner is that player, I do think he can help this safety room.

 

Skinner is a hard-hitting, helmet in chest downhill safety that isn’t afraid of contact. He’s gotta add more weight when he hits the league and I think he needs more work in reading the field, playing angles, and getting his hips to be less stiff and more fluid.

 

R5P162: Michael Wilson WR Stanford

Wilson’s a talented player that’s been plagued by injuries.

He’s been a team captain at Stanford, loves to run block, and I think he’s at his best in the MOF.

His route running needs work and he’s probably not going to be a deep threat but every team needs a physical guy that can work in the middle.

He’s also a plus gunner on ST

 

R7P221: Jalen Redmond DT Oklahoma

R7P236:  Caleb Murphy DE Ferris State

 

Redmond and Murphy are both likely PS guys or at the most depth rotational guys.

 

Redmond is a rush first IDL, he’s quick off the line and has decent counter moves to hit the OL with but he’s a liability in the run game.

 

Murphy had absurd sack numbers at FState but played against mostly D2 players and he got worked by a few tight ends at the Shrine game.

Nice job…

Two small issues worth noting… 

 

First, Voorhees’s arms are over 32 inches so they’re fine for guard.   BUT….  He blew up a knee in Feb and is likely out for most of the 23 season.   
 

Second….   You left out a draft pick.   176 at the bottom of the 5th.   It’s the pick the Colts got in their trade of Gilmore to Dallas.    
 

Otherwise, one of my favorite mocks.    Good job.

Forgot about his ACL and the Gilmore swap

 

Vorhees can probably be dropped down to the R5 (doubtful he'd be there), Diaby would be a good target in R5 aswell

Someone like Tippman, Olu, or Patterson can slide into R3

I agree with your positional priorities and 2nd round trade (if not the individual players).  We’ll done!
