That means when I see something I disagree with, I'm probably going to point it out along with my reasoning for the disagreement. Like, for example, taking Paye over Jenkins. I thought that was a bad move because I think Jenkins could've been a monster LT for the Colts, especially lining up next to Nelson for the next decade, and I don't see Paye amounting to much. I hope Paye proves me wrong and Ballard fixes the roster by getting a LT because I root for the laundry at the end of the day, but I don't like the decision, and I'll dislike it even more if they don't address LT.

I was one of the fans hoping for Jenkins, too. However, I also like the Paye pick. We were in sore need of a pass rush, and had guys signed at OT to play if we didn't get the guy we wanted. For Paye to slip to 21 made it an easy choice, at the time. I still think we will be happy with the pick, plus happy with the line play this season after we get that spot filled.
