Yeah. I don’t care. Glad you figured it out.

You two need to get a room :rolleyes:

My apologies.

Yes, unless it means passing on a high-quality pass rusher.

We should get another pass rusher in our top three picks I bet. This draft aligns nicely with our needs. I’m just wondering what they will try in FA and if any good players actually make it there. I’m hoping Grady Jarret does and we try to sign him. I doubt the best pass rushers will make it though.

The ideal scenario to me would be Grady Jarrett, Frank Clark, and Dee Ford all hitting free agency and the Colts signing all of them. Ford will be entering his age 28 season while Clark and Jarrett will be entering their age 26 seasons. This would eliminate DL as a need, which is good since it appears all the DL talent in this draft is slated to go top 15. Those signings would allow the Colts to, for example, go Johnathan Abram, Terrill Hanks, Trayvon Mullen in the top 60 picks. That would be a very solid, talented group to acquire, but as of now, completely ignores the team's biggest need, which is improved DL play. Signing those three, however, would put the Colts squarely into BPA mode, as that would eliminate the Colts only glaring need.

This offensive line is the backbone of our team. Keep adding to it. Even if we use high draft choices this past season showed what a dominant offline means. Looking at who we are going to sign from our team in the next few years I don’t want to overpay for whatever pass rusher is available. Build from within is something I’m coming around to. There are exceptionsof course if I’m a young player and my team is keeping cap open to pay me when My contact ends I think that not only sends the right signal it has to help the culture of the team develop correctly. I hope we ‘lose’ in free agency again (by lose I mean no to the big names. We ‘lost’ free agency before last season but I would argue after the season was said and done we actually won it.

That's a lot of dline signing. I don't know if I see that. That would be around 60 million give or take. I wouldn't be opposed to it, although Dee Ford does have that injury history and showing up in a contract year.

What about Dante Fowler or Sheldan Richardson? I am hoping they go after Landon Collins, I think he would fit perfectly with Hooker and would provide a nice Tandem. I do like Abram, but I would like more vet presence back there.

There was some under the radar pass rusher that was buried on a deep team and I can't remember his name, trying to find it. Basically an Autry type player.

I'm fine with continuing to add to oline. But I don't want to use a pick that we could find a starter at somewhere else for just depth purposes. Unless it is Constonzo's replacement and they don't want to resign him again.

Shaq Barrett and Shane Ray meet that description. I also wouldn't mind taking a flier on converting Anthony Barr to DE.
