Article on Colts' 2018 and 2019 Draft Classes

Just an article I came across that I thought some here might like to read, complementing the 2018 and 2019 draft classes.

I didn't realize we had 9 picks in the next draft. Holy shit

Yep.

- Received Washington's 2nd round selection next year by trading out of the 1st round this year

- Received Kansas City's 6th round selection (routed through the NY Jets) by trading Nate Hairston


If Washington keeps losing - that draft pick could really be nice at the top of the second round. A bit of Déjà vu

Article doesn't even mention the impact that Mathew Adams has had, he has played in all 22 regular season games with 9 starts and has played well, and then you have Zaire Franklin who has also played in all 22 games, with 2 starts. Add in Deon Cain and Reece Fountain, neither have really proven much, but both are highly thought of, with Cain playing in all games this season and starting 3.

The last 2 drafts have given the Colts plenty of return. With the potential for MUCH more to come as they continue to grow and develop.

That trade with the Skins was such a coup by Ballard. I would have been happy with Rock with their 1st round pick, and they managed to get him later and got what will probably be a top 5 pick in the 2nd round in this draft.
