That's all he has ever shown too... time to move on from the long QB.

Why move on now?

Brissett's value is the least it will ever be with every team finding their QB in free agency and the draft.

Wait until a few weeks into the season when QB 1's and QB 2's start going down.

It is obvious the more we see of Ballard's picks that he uses a different measuring stick than most folks.

Blackmon, Pinter, Windsor. All athletic but all with fairly limited experience or skill sets. High character appears to trump experience.

In Ballard I trust but Windsor would probably have been available as a UDFA.

Different measuring stick.

I would have liked to have seen us take KJ Hill there. Fingers crossed he's still around at the end of the 6th and we take him then.

Please no more OSU players. When has one OSU player ever lived up to has draft status with the Colts?

High character means “coachable”

Yeah, it seems like he always takes some guys not on any of the published draft boards who he seemingly could take later on or pick up as an UDFA. Sometimes this has worked out (Leonard) and sometimes it hasn't (Grover Stewart).

I suppose we haven't had much luck w/ OSU, but I think a 6th rounder for a really good slot receiver would be worth it.

Grover is our starting NT. I would say that is pretty good.
