Hmm I just listened to them talk about it yesterday on NFL radio. Somebody got some bad info. So he didn’t do anything bc of turf toe. His combine was just ok. Wonder if this will hurt him more or he can do private workouts.

I like Wilkins, I think he will be an effective 3-tech with the ability to play other positions on the line if necessary. The other guys I’m more wary of. I think Ferrel will be solid but not spectacular.

I don’t think it’s been brought up: according to the value chart, Colts could move 26 and 34 to get to around #8 or so. I don’t think Ballard would do it...but Eberflus was at Josh Allen’s pro day today. I wonder if there’s a guy they would consider doing it for.

If Josh Allen fell freakishly to #8 I would totally do it.

In terms of Eberflus’ presence, here’s the other Kentucky Defenders that got invites to the Combine:

I just don’t see that happening. Not for Allen. Would need to move up higher I think. But there is Lonnie Johnson Jr. who is a very big corner. 6-2 I think. They also have Bennie Snell, not sure Eberflus would scout a RB though. Probably wasn’t alone.

This Mock has Sweat dropping to #8, do you do that one?:

Nope :cool:

He has two years of good stats against quality competition. He tested well athletically. He looked like the best player at the Senior Bowl. And he'd be part of a rotation here rather than the #1 guy immediately. While I don't think trading both picks away to take him at 8 is a good idea, if Ballard traded #26 and some other picks to move up for him I think it would make sense. He seems like a good player with the potential to be an excellent player as he gets stronger and develops more technique.

It's a move that would make sense and is certainly justifiable, but I think Ballard would prefer to get two shots in the top 34 rather than one higher pick.

Though, I may be reading too much into last year's trade and his comments like "I like them picks," which is why I broached this and said I wonder if there's a specific player exception he would make.

He apparently at least considered parting with draft picks for Dee Ford so it stands to reason that he might not be as hard-line on that as he lets on.
