On Paper! Would rather them kill it on the field of play!

To be fair, the last problem for Ballard has been the draft. By pretty much all the metrics out there that measure draft success the Colts have been one of the best drafting teams in the league in Ballard's era. He has his own issues in other areas of roster building, but I actually like his drafting... overall...

My wife is in grad school at William & Mary (ODU undergrad), so it's always cool to see someone get drafted from there. She mentioned seeing a few players on campus the other day and how huge they were. I showed her the pick and she said "I'm almost positive that's one of the 2 guys I saw!"

Traded w Vikings? Ok

 

That is the only pick that I like so far. The Roy kid from LSU.

Kyu Blu Kelly is better than the previous CB the Vikings picked... 

 

Yes!

What is his name? I missed it. William and Mary is a good school! I think Mike Tomlin is an alum.

Scott should be good depth at safety, can be good as a centerfielder, and good on ST. Just not where I would have gone at this point.

Wanted JL Skinner here. Right position, wrong player. Know him well though and like the pick. Got him before the S run started.

I would've much preferred Skinner if we were going S here.

I thought it was Baltimore that drafted him. Are you referring to Kelly?

 

I like the Roy kid from LSU.

Oh damn, yah... sorry... for some reason I thought it was the Vikings that picked him. My bad... Roy is really good. I thought he would go much higher.

That's okay. It is the shared color (purple).

 

The Colts have had a great draft. I also love what Philly has done.

    • This makes me so happy. It's Karma for all the lies and deception the NFL has put out since recently. They supposedly care about player safety, so lets add a week to the regular season with plans to add more. All these international games where teams have to travel more and the fans get less home games. All the games now that are going to be on various streaming services off TV where people can't watch them with their family. The blatant terrible refereeing the last few years in order to rig games and expecting people not to notice. The Taylor Swift crap this last year where they sold their soul.   It's all about money. That's all the NFL cares about. We are trash to them. The players are trash to them unless they make the NFL money. I hope the NFL has to pay out $14B. This would be exactly what they deserve for ruining this sport to the point where it's almost unwatchable now.
    • This aged like fine wine. After this happened, I bet $1 on the Lakers to win the NBA Finals next year. Get $31 dollars if they do. I'm buying into the conspiracy theory that the league will give it to Lebron and Bronny. Also think the Lakers will make a move or two in FA.
    • When I say lose huge this is what I mean….    The NFL has to pay $4.7 BILLION for breaking anti-trust lawsuit.      BUT WAIT!!   It gets much worse!   Because it’s anti-trust that can turn into triple damages which means $14 Bill+   Now before you shout “Good!  I HATE the NFL!”  And you’re glad they lost, think of the broader implications…   The NFL gets $20 bill in income yearly.  Losing $14 bill is going to badly mess with the entire league.   Remember the 2020 and 21 seasons badly impacted by Covid.  Team salary caps took a big hit.  Rosters got messed up.  This would be even BIGGER.     FWIW:   The NFL says it will appeal.     For more Google: NFL Lawsuit  
    • Definitely. He said the same things last year that he said this year in defending AD. He just didn't name the player he was talking about. I think QBs were the topic, so it could have applied to Levis or Stroud, but it was obvious he was talking about Stroud.   This year, some agencies advised their clients not to take the S2 test. That's about all I remember about it. I think the cognitive testing process has some image rehab to do, and if they can keep scores and results out of the public sphere, that's a good start for them. 
    • He’s not wrong.  Stroud was getting killed based on doing poorly on the new test to measure mental aptitude.   Strictly on that basis it was good to see Stroud succeed.      PS —. Speaking of that test, did we hear anything about that in the 2924 draft?   I didn’t read a single story about it.   Did you?
