Reich Getting Accolades from National Media

[VeveJones007]

A lot of smart football people are high on the Colts rebuild. This is from a recent Matt Miller article on what other scouts are saying about fixing teams with the worst records:

Scout's Take: "Luck is back. They have the front office to turn this around. Just keep rolling."

After a slow start to the season, Andrew Luck looks like his old self again. He's strung together four straight games with at least three touchdown passes and currently sits second in the NFL with 20 TDs.

Luck has done all of that with a rag-tag group at wide receiver and an offensive line that's improving but is still a work in progress. The Colts have a blue-chip quarterback again, which is where the fix starts.

General manager Chris Ballard and his scouts must now stock the roster with skill players and defensive stars like the gem they found in the 2018 draft, second-round linebacker Darius Leonard. With Leonard and 2017 first-rounder Malik Hooker, Ballard has two players around whom he can form his defense.

The Colts are unlikely to lose enough games to land Bosa from Ohio State, but players like Ed Oliver (Houston) and Devin White (LSU) are instant-impact defenders who are possibilities in the top five.

Ballard, head coach Frank Reich and Luck form a trio that should give Colts fans hope for the future. The key is being patient enough to get through 2018 while watching young stars like Leonard, Hooker and Quenton Nelson develop into stars.
