The bolded is what people say about any prospect they've allowed themselves to fall in love with. It's not good strategy. My resistance is not to Bowers directly. It's to the idea that the Colts would have seen Bowers as the best option available if they had the #6 pick in the draft. With Nabors and Odunze still on the board. I think we already knew that the Colts were trying to trade up for Bowers. Someone reported right after the draft that the Colts were calling everybody trying to move up, and the calls stopped when the Raiders took Bowers. So 1+1=2, the Colts wanted Bowers. Not hard to accept. And now we're seeing that the Colts were trying to get up as high as #6, so it's easy to assume that Bowers was the target. But would the Colts have moved up to #6 -- giving up #15, #46, and a future 2nd -- for Bowers? With Nabers and Odunze still on the board? I don't think they would have. I don't think it would have been the right decision. I would have been disappointed with the overall strategy, while still thinking Bowers would be a good offensive weapon for the team.

Personally I think the Colts wanted any of Nabers, Odunze and Bowers. Maybe they wanted one of the WRs at 6 and Bowers when they tried later (11?), nobody but the Colts really know. I do think Ballard offering a "fair" trade to move from 15 to 6 was a bit naive if he REALLY wanted one of those 3 guys. Fair trades don't really happen when you trying to get into that range 1-8 range in my opinion - there's always a premium.

https://apnews.com/article/nfl-sunday-ticket-trial-b17edfd575619d028c7e1581c8700a62 The judge was already on the record as being skeptical of the way this case was handled, and yesterday's hearing was on a motion from the defendants to have the judge rule in their favor and toss out the jury verdict. During that hearing, the judge says the jury didn't follow his instructions in determining damages. I don't know what's going to happen, but I wouldn't be surprised if he overrules the jury and tosses out their verdict. https://apnews.com/article/nfl-sunday-ticket-lawsuit-jerry-jones-8a02c2b2cf3dba56387605ec410dd021

You get recognized for dominating at your position, putting up big numbers and/or winning. It is what it is. Buckner not being on the list is the biggest mystery to me - he's a top 5 DT in my opinion.

Q is a top 3 G and he's not on the list pathetic.
