CB Legacy



I am guessing this draft class will define Ballard's tenure as a GM for the Colts. IF Richardson shows he can be the guy in Indy - if he can make significant improvements in mechanics and improve accuracy and complete shorter throws - if he shows improvement throughout the season the the other 11 draft picks will not have much to do with his job security,. I am going to say even if a couple of these players turn out to be first yer contributors and have an immediate impact on the team - if AR does not look like the guy then CB will probably be looking for another job. I think Irsay is getting old and realizes it isn't just the team window it is also his personal window. If he is going to be hoisting anything Lombardi it will take AR to get him on that stage Super Bowl Sunday.

And while coaches say it isn't about just one player we all know a lot of it does have a lot to do with that one player. I do not know how much pressure Irsay puts on the GM and the head coach but if he is saying get that man ready to start game 1 then I assume he will be starting game one. If AR struggles and Colts get off to one of their patented season start and lose the first 4 games and in doing so the offense is inconsistent and AR looks lost most of the game how long before he gets benched. If the team does badly and AR is stuck on the sidelines then with another bad season to his credit will CB be out of work? Will the Colts spend the 2024 draft bringing in another QB or back to filling in with a veteran heading to the hall of fame based on his carrier with another team.

Waiting to hear how rookie mini camp goes and then what kind of changes the new coordinators will be bringing with them. Does the offensive line have another year that they are embarrassed by their performance and start telling their neighbors they are delivery men for Lowes.

Is Taylor and Leonard back to early form or have the injuries made significant impact on their level of play. I was bored and just sitting and thinking about lunch and the Colts - see old guys have have an exciting life..
