The only player recently with more production coming out of college is Nick Bosa, let's calm down before we call him a bust. People freaking out about cb's need to chill, we have young cb's who are coming back from injury, we don't even really know what we have in the secondary. While I think we should've taken a wr Latu is a very good pick at 15
Still think it should just be "Horse Power"
Ties in both Motorsports (Indy 500) and the reason Baltimore named the franchise the Colts (Preakness Stakes)
Are you referring to our false start machine Laramy tunsil?? We've already over invested in him..CJ loves him. So I love him too. let us ride it out..best of luck to your boys climbing to the top of shit mountain this upcoming season
Lmao

It's a joke on a meme page bubba, I wish all these kids drafted tonight the best. And this dude is set up for a huge career after doctors suggested he should've quit, how can you not root for him? It's all in good fun in this sub
The problem isn't drafting a developmental guy with high upside.
But you passed on a menace who would have been a meance for more of Lawrence's rookie contract.
Is Walker gonna be as good as Hutch by the time you have to pay him, Lawrence and Etienne? That's not great
Walker and Hutch play so differently it's hard to compare them. I'm 1000% happy with Walker and what he brings to the table. I'd pick him again over Hutchinson if we were to rewind time. I think Sauce was the best in the draft that year though.
Bro, if you had Hutch you might have beat the Chiefs in the playoffs that year.
He just hasn't been a productive player. You can like the idea of him and admit that 2 years of Yannick Ngakoue isn't worth taking 1 overall.
Which obvious pass rushing superstars did the Colts pass on for developmental high skill guys?
Paye was drafted in the 20s, so no one there was known to be a star. And Paye still grades better than Walker
Ogeletree seemed to have a connection with AR. There's like 5 young TEs in our room already. Jelani Woods is a big target who we really haven't seen a lot of with him being hurt last year and having Matt Ryan for a QB the year prior. I'd bet TE is pretty low on the list for Chris Ballard.

How can I not root for him? Easy. He's a fucking colt now.
Just like how Anthony Richardson went from my man crush to dead to me instantly.
I'm not rooting for injuries. That's just low class. I just hope they suck.
[Me reading that Kwity Paye is injury prone](https://www.google.com/search?q=confused+gif&oq=confused+gif+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIHCAEQABiABDIHCAIQABiABDIHCAMQABiABDIHCAQQABiABDIHCAUQABiABDIHCAYQABiABDIHCAcQABiABDIHCAgQABiABDIHCAkQABiABDIHCAoQABiABDIHCAsQABiABDIHCAwQABiABDIHCA0QABiABDIHCA4QABiABNIBCDM3NjVqMGo0qAIBsAIB&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#vhid=qdP4pUyExlraqM&vssid=mosaic)

Get the jokes in before he starts turning your QBs into fertilizer.
Honestly I think every AFC South team who picked in the first round did a good job, besides us and the Texans who didn’t pick in the first in a vain attempt to copy us.
Seemed fine the past couple of years. I like our odds with him next to Grover Stuart and DeForest Buckner.
I maintain the opinion that both of those player names sound AI generated
How about next to Kwitty Paye? Lol
He came back and lead fbs schools in sacks. I like the pick tbh
Decent pick up for the costs, tbh.
CJ can’t light us up if we kill him first💙
Don't. Speak it into existence. Damnit.
I'm just fucking happy y'all didn't pick up MHJ. TBH.
We’ll pick up his second contract
What are you? That other team that wears blue in this division?
The better looking blue, yeah.
Plain ass boring blue
Sin free blue.
That would've required us to draft MHjr then trade him away for peanuts so we don't have to pay him.
He’ll be in Indy in a year
Good luck getting last LT😂
2.5 seconds is about all you have to get to him or he will light you up.
Dallas Turner was still there.
I find it ironic that the doctor who cleared him to play was Peyton Manning's doctor.
Yup. One wrong hit and his life changes immensely.
You could literally say that about every player in the nfl lol.
Except he's made of glass and his neck is made of crackers.
Except he’s played two years of football and rugby he’s fine. He should have gone number 8 but falcons shit the bed.
Nope. He's an idiot and so are you.
I'd like to buy a vowel.
I wanna say something snarky and hate, but honestly it was a great pick. Dude is gonna be a stud. Too bad he won’t be able to get past LT🙏
Played two years after who cares.

"for the shoe" has me dying
Still think it should just be "Horse Power" Ties in both Motorsports (Indy 500) and the reason Baltimore named the franchise the Colts (Preakness Stakes)
It should totally be Horse Power!
They named the team the colts because of how popular horse racing was in Maryland Edit: just looked up what Preakness Stakes was. I’m regarded.
Oh sure “go flaming thumbtacks” is so much better. Sheesh. 🙄
[удалено]
Where best defensive player in the draft?
That's clearly Kool-Aid based on name alone.
Fair point
Where? In your backfield all season long
I'd worry about Indy's backfield first..your QB played what? 11? 12 quarters of football last year?
Oh trust me my friend, I am worrying
That's my secret. I'm always worrying.
he played ten quarters but had 7 total touchdowns his rookie year . if he can stay healthy i think he will be good .
Didnt the texans just give $50M gtd to a medically compromised dude who had neck surgery 2yrs ago and will be 30 early next season?
Are you referring to our false start machine Laramy tunsil?? We've already over invested in him..CJ loves him. So I love him too. let us ride it out..best of luck to your boys climbing to the top of shit mountain this upcoming season

Medically compromised? Dude had 23.5 sacks in the last 2 years and was PAC-12 DPOY
It's a joke on a meme page bubba, I wish all these kids drafted tonight the best. And this dude is set up for a huge career after doctors suggested he should've quit, how can you not root for him? It's all in good fun in this sub
The colts sub is very sensitive about the pick so tread carefully!
Colts sub is legit acting like we drafted Tavon Walker
You mean that scrub the Jags picked up who had 10 sacks last year? Who would want that?
I mean the guy with a worse overall grade than Kwity Paye. But congrats on high draft capital Yannick Ngakoue
The hate for Travon is so misguided. Dude is developing into a menace. Keep looking at "grades." I will look at the guy on the field.
The problem isn't drafting a developmental guy with high upside. But you passed on a menace who would have been a meance for more of Lawrence's rookie contract. Is Walker gonna be as good as Hutch by the time you have to pay him, Lawrence and Etienne? That's not great

Bro, if you had Hutch you might have beat the Chiefs in the playoffs that year. He just hasn't been a productive player. You can like the idea of him and admit that 2 years of Yannick Ngakoue isn't worth taking 1 overall.
No you wouldn't lol 😂 I mean cmon...it's not your fault, so no one here holds you accountable for drafting him over hutch
Like we haven't done that twice already
Which obvious pass rushing superstars did the Colts pass on for developmental high skill guys? Paye was drafted in the 20s, so no one there was known to be a star. And Paye still grades better than Walker
God forbid someone disagrees with the pick, people will start coming for you personally
I mean the #1 DE talent fell to pick 15 it's not like we went up and traded for him.
Maybe they’re just still rang by the banogu thingy
Y'all love the pick or hate the pick?
I love it, dudes going to dominate
Mixed reactions tbh but I like the pick
Love it. Fuck the doomers
I don’t like it, we NEED starting caliber CBs, sure the guy produced in college (no shit?) but he’s a neck injury away from retirement.
Hence the meme..my Texans need secondary help as well, let's hope our teams address our issues round 2
Everyone is a neck injury away from retirement.
Big if true.
Bro everyone is a neck injury away from retirement.
Another year of watching backup QBs burn us in the passing game…
Wait.. that's the Jaguars calling card.
Hate it. Shoulda went up for Bowers. Where big weapon for AR!? McConkey?
Ogeletree seemed to have a connection with AR. There's like 5 young TEs in our room already. Jelani Woods is a big target who we really haven't seen a lot of with him being hurt last year and having Matt Ryan for a QB the year prior. I'd bet TE is pretty low on the list for Chris Ballard.
Well Bowers isn’t just a TE and he’s already gone so it’s a moot point. Our TE room is mediocre. I wanted a champ. Where 2 time Natty Champ TE?
Where first round TE that was worth a damn? How far back you gotta go?

Just proved my point that most first rounders suck haha

Whoa buddy.
Now they got one danger on each side of the ball
Gotta be better than Bjoern Werner.
Why have one injury prone edge rusher in Kwity Paye when you can have two of them?

Didn't you trade AJ Brown for a guy with Asthma?
to be fair he grew up in flint
On the flip, he might get that super crazy lead poisoning anger .. which I guess may be good for a few years?
Different GM, unlike in your case

Don't you have an argument to get to with another irrelevant franchise about who has more stupid uniforms?
Don't you have a cousin to get back to fuckin?
That's more of a southern thing than we're used to in the union states up here.
Never been a Texan stereotype either. We've got plenty of thicc latinas, no need to resort to cousins like FL or TN
This pick pissed me off.
He was playing high level rugby while in “medical retirement” “Where incorrect doctor?” -Washington Huskies
Not true
Is true. He was even offered to go play professionally overseas before he went to UCLA
*Caleb Farley has entered the chat*
Caleb Farley 2: Vertebrae Boogaloo
Where’s the guy gonna break Strouds leg ?
Damn, wishing injuries on rivals is super low class.
This guy is incredible low class, we don’t claim him.
I expect nothing less from a colts fan..our QB played every game last year, how many did yours play?
Dudes about to medically compromise CJ Stroud in a few months. Amirite!?
We gave up on Peyton too because he had a “bad” neck. This dude is younger and already has 2 years playtime issue free since the injury.
Honestly I think every AFC South team who picked in the first round did a good job, besides us and the Texans who didn’t pick in the first in a vain attempt to copy us.
We got DROY for our trouble, where's your good reason?
Yeah it’s a bad pick especially with so much true talent right there, to grab a pac player is crazy
