I wouldn't hate that, but it would leave a glaring need at LT.

Sure, but good luck getting the Eagles to go for that.

I keep coming around to Mac Jones. He might be the only QB left. People compare him to Burrow but Burrow’s accuracy is better and he threw into tighter windows. Jones’ guys are open a lot. But what I do like about him is he never seems to get flustered and is laser focused. See how he does in the championship game.

I think QBs are going to go fast next draft. Eagles could even pick one. And Dolphins might even pull a Cardinals move and draft another because Tua seems slow to progress. If we are hoping for a Trey Lance, going to have to trade up. Might even have to trade up for Mac Jones.

Wont be more than 4 QB's taken in the 1st round Just sayin Other position BPA will outweigh a chance at drafting a QB

Still a little early to say anything definitively. As things are now I see 4 QBs in the first 15. I can see Mac Jones anywhere between 15-45. Depends who likes him.

Ehhh. people were saying that last yr. (Gonna be 6 taken)..... didnt happen There is a lot of other high value talent in the 1st round. But I hope youre right and the Colts get a super high BPA when they pick

I don’t know about six, seems a little high. Who was 5 and 6 after Love? You can probably find someone to say just about anything. But Love ended up being a first and there was a lot of debate on that. Eason also fell a lot further than people expected.

This year doesn’t look as deep to me as other years. No seemingly top end pass rusher, no top end Dt’s. One top o-tackle then a tier below. Not sure who the top CB is, maybe Surtain but I have seen him in the teens. Not a great year bc of covid. What I have read is NFL seems higher on Jones than the media. Still, very early in the process, we got a lot of potential mid round QBs too in this draft.

The way I see it, the QB needs to come from either a trade below 1st round, or as a free agent. The Colts need to use the first round of the draft on a quality, ready to start, Left Tackle. There are none of these in the free agent market unless they're dinosaurs.

Someone made an interesting point on another forum. The packers signed a tackle last offseason and he ended up having a higher rating than any of the rookie tackles this year. They will have to draft one eventually, but a vet might be a good stop gap too.
