JRob has made good moves as well as questionable ones, like all GMs. They are the ones putting in time to look at this prospects, team needs etc. Not us.

The Rice pick was critizied because we had bigger needs, WR and Edge. Edge was addressed with the Weaver pick in 4. What DE should have taken instead of Rice?

Drafted in Round 3 after Rice
Perkins

Drafted in Round 4
Cameron Sample
Everson Smith
Chris Rumph
Jordan Smith
Janaris Robinson
*Rashard Weaver

As far as WR, I think it should have been addressed earlier because I'm not sure Fitzpatrick or McArithmetic are immediate starters, which we need.
Unrealistic I know but I wanted Elijah Moore in 2
And then I think we shouldn't have traded with GB...stayed and picked Rodgers

GM is not an easy job with all the scenarios going on

We also don’t know what chatter GMs or scouts have among themselves. Since Fitzpatrick was apparently drawing attention to himself at the senior bowl, there may have been a threat to lose him. I’m sure JR was tired of seeing Wr after Wr picked ahead of him in the 2nd round and was ready to get one of “his” guys.
 
The Colts finished 11-5 last season the same as us, maybe they didn't improve but at least they stayed the same? They need a LT but I'm sure they are aware of that...we got in the playoffs by the head to head match up....Jax may not be great but the changes they've made could at least make them semi competitive, they beat GB last year so anything is possible

I agree we aren't slouches by any means but I don't think the division is ours to lose..which is fine, I'd rather win against good teams than hear the excuses of a weak division.

Houston is a mess so who knows there lol


They didn’t get better. Their draft was a mess. Their WR core is worse than ours. They lost pieces on defense. We got a lot better on defense. Our offense will probably take a half step back, but we can fade that. The Colts literally had the worst off season of any team in the NFL when you factor available Cap Space.

Colts at 9-8 That could change is they spend money now after the draft. If they make a trade or 2.

Jags 6-11

Texans 2-15 But I can see them going 0-17. This team will be lost for the next decade or more.


Just my humble opinion

I agree with you in theory. Trading up in the 2nd to get a WR would have been ideal. But we don’t know everything that’s going on or why they didn’t, they maybe know where they are getting another WR. They know who will be cut or who they can trade for.

Very surprised they didn’t select a WR.
 
Indy didn't lose any WRs..Hilton re-signed...Pittman is good, they got Mack back
LT is their biggest ?


They lost defense. A lot of it.
.
Let’s be real... If Pittman were a Titan no one would like him. He is a Colt and suddenly he is good. He is ok. Hilton is old. He is still good, but he isn’t what he once was. Their WRs aren’t great.

Mack? So they are a running team ?

My point was they aren't as bad off as you want to believe
 
Yeah good luck explaining reasoning on here. Wayyy too many homers!!
I'm a big Titans fan ( not Oilers), have been for a while. I want us to win it all as much as anyone but I don't like discarding teams, the Colts are a good team, the Jags have sucked lately but it doesn't take much to turn the other way. It happened with us, it can happen.
Colts getting LT Eric Fisher in for a visit, if he's healthy that's a big hole they've filled.

To say Pittman isn't good when all we have is Brown is silly. Yes we are a run team but God help us if Henry goes down...we're phucked

I never said the Colts weren’t a good team. I said they weren’t better than the Titans. You seem to always slant towards other teams in your evaluation and give the other team more of a benefit of the doubt.

Michael Pittman had 500 yards in 13 games and 1TD. He had a 100 yard game against the Titans which is I assume why you think he is really good. He was an early 2nd round draft pick who the Colts reached to get. He was supposed to go in the 3rd round at earliest based on draft analysis. He was tagged as a good special teams player. He was injured in his first season as well. My point is that if JRob has drafted this kid you some of you would have called him a BUST and called for JRob to be shot over wasting an early 2nd on a special teams/possession receiver.

Michael Pittman is just another guy. Do your research. The Colts have an old clearly declining TY Hilton and Pittman and then the abyss at WR. They are trying to get a LT but don’t have one yet, They lost on defense big time and didn’t replace them. They didn’t spend the money they had on the off season. They didn’t improve to this point.

Again.. If JRob had the off season the Colts have had so far you would judge this team and him much harsher than you are judging the Colts. They hav been bad this off season and had a horrible draft and you think they are better than the Titans because we just have Henry and just have Brown. They don’t have that.

Eric Fisher had a torn Achilles. 26% of NFL players never return from that injury. Typically recovery time is 9 months. But you are right, if he is healthy that’s helps them a lot. We will see.

The Colts could improve. They have money. But as of right now any unbiased view of them has them as a mediocre to good team. The Jags could be a problem depending on the Lawrence learning curve. An unbiased view of the division should clearly say that the Titans were a better team last season, had a better off season and remain the division favorites.

The Colts WRs are as bad off as I believe. As of today, right now they are a bad unit for a team that intends the throw the ball a lot. In fact, they are a bad unit for any team. If we were in that same spot you guys would be going crazy. The Titans WR group is ALOT better than the Colts.

Go read the Indy sites. THEY think they got worse.
