The Colts have knocked this draft out of the park so far! Best defender in the draft and a 1st round WR at pick 52.     "You're not you when you're hungry eat a snickers" 😂

We sure Ballard is making these picks lol?? Two guys with concerns. Love it but not typical of Ballard. I think he knows he needs  play makers and is swinging for the  fences. Like it. Whether Ballard makes it into next year. He is sure making it interesting lol.


Trying to trade up in the 1st round and drafting a player with character concerns, I think there is an imposter calling the shots lol.

Its about frigging time. People harp on me for being hard on Ballard. This is what I wanted to see out of him.

Is it just me or is Mitchell rated higher than the dude the bills picked first tonight?!


Yes he is, higher than Legette and McConkey and Coleman and Polk who went ahead of him in terms of pure talent.

 

I remember the Pacers taking a flier on Lance Stephenson following a first rounder Paul George from Fresno State, a lesser known program, both those swings for the fences paid off.

 

This draft kind of reminds me of that.

So what was the red flag for him to drop so far.  Work ethic?  Can’t be diabetes.

Linebacker? Offensive line depth?

 

No linebackers I like will be available I think, I'm thinking we will see linebackers with those 5th rounders we picked up. OL could make sense

Anger issues and possible lack of work ethic. I heard he takes plays off if he doesn't get the ball.

Yep, work ethic and his diabetes affecting his attitude sometimes

Not mad at all about this draft so far. Assuming Wilson and Colson are gone, I’m guessing either CB or O line depth in the 3rd. Unless they really like one of the safeties.

Totally agree. I think the debacle of the 2022 season may have gave him pause to reassess what he is doing. Glad that he is being more aggressive because he has always been a good talent evaluator.

I would go OL.

I would definitely draft the best corner available... look at what we have to face in our division now... we need secondary help more than anything right now IMO...  Latu yesterday can also drop in coverage

Good Ballard seems to be looking beyond these stuff...

 

Ballard now seems destined to draft talents irrespective of flags, medical or others... 

This tells me that the seat maybe warmer than most people think. He needs play makers and time to gamble a little. Steichen also has that Philly mindset

      How many games will the Colts win in 2024?

      By Chucklez · Posted

      You are missing out a rather LARGE piece of the puzzle in your factoring here. We had last season's win numbers with GARDNER FREAKING MINSHEW at QB practically the whole season. Love the guy and what he did for us last season, but he isn't exactly a world beater at the QB position. AR brings such a different dynamic to this offense and teamm, Shane is going to be chomping at the bit to get started this season. The sample size we saw from AR last season was small, but it was definitely encouraging - especially considering we were all expecting him to be much more raw and inaccuarte. He basically red-shirted last year, learning the NFL game and in Steichen's ear the whole time, while learning the playbook inside out.  Our team has fundamentally stayed the same as last season, which damn near won the AFC South with Gardner at QB for the love of god. Now we add AR to that mix, as well as some very interesting additions in Mitchell and Latu who could have very meaningful impacts. The fact that we are so under the radar is almost laughable - AFC South isnt going to know what hit it.

      Chris Ballard: Redfining what Success means in the NFL

      By AwesomeAustin · Posted

      Great points!  I would assume the Irsay’s would conduct the interviews. If Steichen is given more control he would as well or the new GM could decide his fate like Ballard did with Pagano. Several ways it can go and we are a few years away from it even happening so who really knows. I’m hoping none of it matters and the team becomes a true contender and this discussion is merely killing time.

      Chris Ballard: Redfining what Success means in the NFL

      By CoachLite · Posted

      I would say "hire the best who's available for the job". If all the good / great GM candidates are gone, you're stuck hiring someone like Grigson (or maybe someone from this forum).   I often wonder, who's the best candidate to hire for an impossible job? Someone who can make the impossible, possible?

      I agree.  Hire who’s best for the job.  But that doesn’t mean the guy who is easiest is automatically the wrong choice.  Easiest can also mean best.   It depends on your perspective.
