SubZero Walk On

I mean look at what happens colts get the chance to draft arguable the best college QB prospect. They also drafted other players very well Brazill was a great pick. They handled FA picking Redding, Zbikowski, and Freeman. Next year they also have tons of cap space. It looks like to me in the next year or so the Colts will become another big power house!

yeah i think were one great cb and rt away from being a superbowl contender.

Not to be negative, only objective and grounded....I have serious doubts that we're even capable of being a wildcard contender. So early on in the pre-season and I can tell we are in fact building a monster here, but this will take time. Cohesiveness will take time.

I say enjoy this year for what it is and do not invest yourselves emotionally in some skewed idea that we're locked and loaded to take on venerable AFC teams for a playoff run. Pay attention though, remember all this. Several years from now you're going to want to remember the beginning.

Areas we need up grades after this season based on what I've seen so far:

2nd CB, Another safety. DT.

Guard and right tackle on the line

Running back I think Brown and the guys we have are nice number two backs but I am not sure if we really have a NFL starter at running back on this team.

A game changing WR. Wayne is nice but is getting older. I think the younger guys can be nice weapons but we really don't have a great young stud WR on this team to be groomed to replace Wayne. It would not shock me at all if our first round draft pick next year is a WR to Luck's guy.

Special Teams in general. This is hard to judge in the pre-season because they just kinda throw guys out there to get a feel but we can use more talent there outside of the skill positions of kicker, punter, and snapper.

Beyond that I think we have a really good solid young team in place that is going to grow together.

      Kupp ran in the 4.6's. Quick brain and quick feet kick tail. Rewatch a Colts game and focus on Downs. He is incredible getting off the line, attacking a zone, he gets open in a flash. Just how you beat pressure.

      2025 Mock Draft

      By tweezy32 · Posted

      Obviously you dont want to pass up on great talent, but makes me question if we should go DT seeing we just got grove and buckner on extensions. Also the new big guy too. Wouldn't be mad if we drafted that position but would rather go edge again. Could finally get to the old days of Mathis and Freeney!

      Colts Select Laiatu Latu Edge UCLA

      By throwing BBZ · Posted

      Irsay himself, with all the Best intentions,  has been our problem. He "mentored" Chuck and Grigson by his own admission during his very troubled personal times. Some bad decisions were made that he should own up to someday.  Post Frank it is all begun anew. The league has progressed, we hit BIG with our HC, we have a QB with huge upside and great prospects to help elevate our competitiveness.  Ballard has earned his flack along the way.   Knock on wood that our Team has good luck. Ballard will look way better if so.

      I think the Colts are still trying to figure that out. Latu is more than capable off both edges, though, so I expect they'll end up moving him around.

      I'd say Chiefs are king until proven otherwise. Even as a Bengals fan, I'm pretty weary of Burrow's wrist injury since it's so unprecedented and it just doesn't seem like the team is as good as it was in the early stages of the rivalry. I think Cincy missed their chance to win a ring and it's over similar to Buffalo. I seriously just don't see how any team can really knock Kansas off unless they miss the playoffs entirely.    So far, I'm thinking we barely miss the playoffs again (super early prediction) due to a very muddy AFC.
