Lifetime Colt Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Just now, ArmchairQB said: It would make sense from the standpoint of seeing what they come up with in the draft. Problem is they risk getting lower compensation after the draft They might get a better deal in, or after, the draft if some team misses on a corner they want and go overboard with picks, or combo player and picks. KC is not hurting if the keep Sneed for the year on the tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goatface Killah Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 2 hours ago, Superman said: Speaking for myself only, I held out hope that Ballard would see the need to direct resources toward the weaker areas of the team. Him doubling down on other areas is disappointing. On offense, I want some OL depth and an improvement at WR. I wasn't expecting any fireworks in FA. But if he lets all of our guys walk and create more needs, I dont see how that helps either. And I do think that spot behind Grover was a weak spot. Its just not sexy. Hes not done. If he pulls off a trade for Sneed and adds a guy like Troy Franklin in the draft, I would be thrilled honestly. Even if he doesnt get Sneed, if he could sign Justin Simmons I would also be stoked.

twfish Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Is it crazy to think that since the colts were 1 game away from winning the division and going to the playoffs with a very limited back up QB that we really don’t need as much as some of us think we do? 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dobbinblitz Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 2 hours ago, Superman said: Paye and Dayo were drafted three seasons ago. Both are heading into contract years, and like you said, neither of them are top tier pass rushers. I would have rather kept our powder dry and look to find a way to add a top tier pass rusher, whether now or in the future. Same for a good coverage LB, or help in the secondary. If you think we have a good enough pass rush to support a contention level defense, then it's just an area where we disagree on a fundamental level. Yes. Coverage Linebacker is a massive need for this team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as Id love to see Ballard do the same thing, history has shown that very very very rarely does going on a super spending spree in FA result in any real gains. The Jags did it many times, and again after they draft Trevor Lawrence. They’ve gone no where. Browns did it several times. Chargers did it with Herbert. all after just one season with their rookie QBs. All of them showed promise so they went all in. meanwhile, teams like the Bills and Chiefs, spent the money more wisely and slowly, albeit that is starting to catch up because of how well they’ve drafted and developed their own while also supplementing with quality FA. This is the model I think Ballard is trying to replicate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably even get a 4th + player potentially? As far as the everything else in the secondary, be patient. We are going to address it and there are still numerous options available. I seriously believe that we are in on Simmons and Snead. Been reviewing the roster a little bit. We are stocking up on the defensive side of the ball. Setting up for some weapons in the draft. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
