Colts select Adonai Mitchell WR Texas (Merged)


Recommended Posts

Absolute masterclass by Ballard.

Clearly Ballard believes our team is strong enough to withstand any character concerns and that Reggie can set him straight.

Kid has all the talent in the world. He can't take plays off though.

Let's go!!!

PFF loving this pick

 

"Mitchell dropped just one pass over the past two years on 103 targets."

Lowest drop rate in the draft. One of the best separators in the draft too... both him and Worthy were victims of inconsistent QB play at Texas. 

 

If you watch his red-zone highlights... he's open soooooo much. Like... in compressed field you are not supposed to be this open this often. 

 

No idea what his attitude problems are but his talent is much better than pick no. 52 would suggest. I wouldn't have been mad if we took him at 15.

Niiiiiiiiiiiice..

played that like a fiddle. pick up AD AND get two fifths. (Which is where we got Grover and Speed if I remember correctly)

NOW, what were the attitude concerns????

Incredible value.

 

To trade down, accumulate picks and still get Adonai Mitchell, who fits both best player available and position of need.

 

Ballard read that stretch between 46 and 52 perfectly. 
 

Thank you!

Maybe type 1 diabetes caused him to pace himself.

Great pick here. Anyone notice Ballards change in philosophy so far. He took some one with a medical issue. Then takes a guy with some character concerns. He is swinging for the fences. Venturi was adamant colts needed a burner opposite Pittman. They got it.

This is exactly what I told my friend. Edge with injury concerns but who actually produced in college. WR with character concerns (maybe because health?), but all the talent in the world.

Ballard believes this team is close, and he's trying to hit home runs.

    • That’s my hope at least. We feel, more than any year in recent memory, primed to possibly go into next year’s off-season with no major holes (assuming we re-sign our FAs or our depth looks ready to step up). That lets us take BPA or try again to move up for an elite prospect. But there are a lot of IFs here (IF our DBs have an improved year. IF we don’t have any major fall offs in performance. IF we don’t have any late season major injuries, IF our rookies this coming year show us their trajectory is still high.   I would classify myself as cautiously amped moving forward haha.
    • This just seems like the second guessing fans love to do with anything the Colts do. Had they done the reverse of what they did there would be a thread about that.  Nothing wrong with it fans are free to do that here.   i will say a fifth year option and a punters contract aren’t going to make or break Ballard no matter how they workout.
    • Reds are now into a 6 game losing streak... Outscored 34-10 during this timespan. As of right now, they are officially the worst performing team in baseball.    Something has to give... Can't even have a fire sale right now because none of the players are good enough to trade off... 
    • What sucks about losing Game 1 is, it makes Game 2 a must win. We brought great energy in Game 1, our bench outscored their bench 46-3 but Brunson had a monster game to make up for most of that. Not sure all of our players can bring that kind of energy again, having said that Haliburton can't play any worse unless his back is just really bothering him badly.    Can't fall down 0-2 - that is a steep hill to climb. 1-1 gives us a legit chance of winning this series. We got Game 2 at Milwaukee to tie it 1-1 and won in 6. We will see how it goes down. I can almost promise everyone this, the REFS won't be near as bad, they are on watch now. 
    • Fun time of the offseason. Studying the schedule is always fun and trying to give early predictions what might be a win or a loss. I rank this the 5th best football day of the year only behind: 1. SB Sunday   2. NFC/AFC Title Game Sunday    3. Opening Day = Opening Sunday because that is when most of the games are played to open the season.   4. First day of the Draft   5. Schedule day!
