Miller said he interviewed Ballard and asked him about moving up to #1 to ensure getting the quarterback they wanted. Ballard admitted that “ they hadn’t done the work “ to thoroughly vet all the candidates so they could feel comfortable in making that move. WTH!! This really is dereliction in my opinion . I have been a staunch supporter of Ballard. Not so sure anymore That is crazy if he actually said that. I'm guessing a lot of Colts fans won't be thrilled to hear that. Wow.

Their on-air comments after relaying this was”you snooze you lose.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing a lot of Colts fans won't be thrilled to hear that. Wow. There is an article in the Indy Star dated March 27th where Ballard was quoted as saying “they weren’t quite ready “ and they”didn’t have all the information “ on the quarterback candidates to feel comfortable trading with the Bears- which Carolina ultimately did. So, your season was over 2 1/2 months ago. It was imperative that the franchise find their quarterback. Yet it wasn’t a high enough priority to put every single effort into being ready to make the decision that ultimately could save or cost your career? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a play making TE that can go down the field and make plays like a Kelce or a Little. It is not my top choice for the second round but if you can get a guy like those two in round two or three that would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Jelani is the playmaker, I just worry about him being anything besides that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 Titans loved Malik Willis so much they drafted Will Levis. So the AFC South has Lawrence, Stroud, Richardson and presumably Levis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 Colts have now traded down twice and got a 5th from LV and a 4th from Atlanta. I think they now have 4 5th round picks and 2 4tn round picks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
