Is that what you meant?

Heh, Mel Kiper has Dalvin Cook at #8 and Mike Williams at #9 on his Big Board. Both are possible/probable to still be available when we come up at #15.

This BPA, come hell or high water approach can get you in trouble in a hurry.

No, we don't need 10 LB's, but we do need ones that are good. I like Sheard and Simon, I'm okay with the upside of Mingo/Spence, but I also know that we need more TALENT there.

Pass rush and ILB for the first two picks is my preference.

Maybe OT. But I don't think they would be BPA anyway. Could be a RB but I doubt they grade out that much ahead of a CB or LB

I can't see drafting a RB, or a LB after investing all your FA $ in LB's

Our 1st round pick needs to contribute immediately and at this point I'd say the weakest position on this team is the right side of the O line

[Coltsalr]

A few of the pass rushers I think could contribute Day One, particularly Tim Williams.

I also like Reuben Foster as a potential Day One difference maker at ILB.

OLB(RUSH), ILB, CB in first 3 rounds.

CB, Safety and Wildcard (any position) in 4th round.

NT in 5th round.

That would be a great off-season IMO.

When was the last time a Colts team drafted a player that wasn't BPA?


We go through this every year and yet you all are surprised when they draft the way that 90% of all good GM's do. BPA

Any year that Chris Polian or Ryan Grigson were leading our draft?

With that assessment then you agree it should be BPA

Grigson didn't draft BPA. He drafted bad players, mostly.

Wildcard should be a RB in the 4th or 5th.
