I’m sure they have a plan, must like the depth a Tackle and pass rusher in the draft

I like it that whoever they draft will have Nelson and Buckner to lean on in those position groups

They are pretty much forced to draft those two positions now.

I’d say at this point Ballard isn’t concerned about “tipping his hand” IMO the first pick has to be used on LT at this point that’s more valuable then a pass rusher

I’m not so sure. I actually think they will try to trade down. But it will likely depend who is available, with all the QBs someone will fall to 21.

Jaelan Philips, the other DE from Miami. Scored a 9.99 Ras. That puts him 3rd in athletiscm off all DE’s drafted from 1987 to 2021. He has had a lot of injuries though.

I agree with chrome, it depends on who is there at 21. Since LT is supposed to be so deep, if there is a DE they love at 21 then they take LT with second pic.

Maybe they trade back from 21 to pick up an extra 2 or 3 and grab their LT with their first pick.

Maybe they take someone at 21, the move up in the second

Lots of options.

I’m just saying LT is an every down guy needed right now, you can get a situational pass rusher later. Not having a pass rush lost us a playoff game, missing Castanzo costed us a few regular season games this year

And while neither have shined yet, the Colts do have Turay and Banogu on the roster. The team has options at DE.

The team has zero options at LT if we don't draft a good kid. Signing a vet for a season becomes the only option.

It comes down to determining the difference between the LTs available late first round and second round. Seems a lot of reviews think they are pretty similar. We’ll see what the binder thinks.
