Colts must be figuring on playing four receivers. I'm only half joking. They got Carter too, you know.

Good stuff, thanks man.
I'm just sitting here thinking about the Colts pick. How many passes can the kid have thrown to him next season, realistically? They already have Hilton, Johnson and Carter, plus they have the two tight ends, and you know they'll throw a few to Gore or whomever plays RB for them. Has to be a long term pick. Or maybe an insurance pick. Must be something like that.

He's a safety, Mike Mayock is high on him. Killed it at the Senior Bowl. Got good coverage skills, can play man to man. Not afraid to hit. I don't know if he is a return man. But he runs a 4.4.

Yeah, I can see it being related to Chess. I know they be pissed when a player they really wanted get drafted before them. I will pay money to see the Ravens draft board.

T.Y will get most of the attention, so I guess they figured he can run past a couple of guys while T.Y and Johnson get most of the attention. I don't know.
Yeah, he's fast. 4.3 I think. But I forgot they have Moncrief also. That's a shitload of receivers.

Lol. Yeah that's a lot, but you know they say its a passing league now. Besides Qb, that's the position I thought yall wouldn't go in the first round. But the decision makers must think highly of him, picking him with all that talent that's already there.
I thought they would probably go defense or running back. Definitely wasn't thinking WR.

I don't think our guy is that good. I just like him because he runs a 4.2. And you can't teach speed. I don't think I ever been upset at one of our picks. They put the 1000 of hours in scouting a player, and if they feel comfortable drafting him, I'm for it.
Isn't he the guy known for dropping easy passes?

Without the ball.
Can't teach speed. Plus his father was a NFL wideout, and we got Steve Smith to mentor him. So I think he will be great (I hope too).
So many times these guys who are fast can't catch the damn ball. It's like they're thinking about running with the ball before they have the ball.

Cmon man, you are making me think of Daruis Hayward Bey. I need to keep being excited of this pick. Lol.
You are right tho, a lot of those 4.2 4.3 receivers doesn't last long.
The defensive backs are also fast. Most of them can't catch the ball either, though.

My draft experience was interrupted by the Avengers, but I'm already looking to round two.

They say, that's why they are playing DB, if they could catch, they will be a wideout.
Anybody you got your eye on in the 2nd?

Who do you want, in the 2nd?
Probably right. No, I was so focused on Gurley, hadn't really thought much about other backs.

Ameer Abdullah maybe. I like Jay Ajayi personally, so I won't say him, lol. But it's a lot of good ones left.
Looked up Abdullah. Stats look good, but I see he's not considered very fast or very powerful for the NFL.
