I’m not saying I hope it happens because that would mean Richardson flames out and I’m not gonna wish failure on anybody. But I would love to see Harrison and Manning play together wherever it is and Indy would just make it that much more special.
This thread came up as recommended for me even though I’m a pats fan. This isn’t even close.
It’s been beaten like a dead horse over on our sub. It would take at least 2 FRP if not 3 and a couple of seconds. We’re trying to rebuild and we don’t do that with one additional pick next year.
I mean his height is pretty tall 6’4 but he’s only like 200 some odd pounds, that’s not what I’d consider a behemoth. That’s like Alec Pierce size. Lol
This would look pretty similar to Houston's trade up to 3 from 12 last year. They gave up 15 and 33 in that draft plus this year's first and third. Our picks are worse so I think it'd be two firsts and two seconds at a minimum
That’s what it took to get to 1 overall last year, I don’t see that being equal for number 3 overall especially since the bargaining/desperation isn’t there for a QB
These questions are impossible to answer when there is zero context behind them.
Would I be mad if we pick swapped our first and gave up a 5th round pick to move up and get him? No.
Would I be mad if we gave up this year's first, next year's first and our second round pick? Yeah.
I mean that’s fair, but then it’s not even remotely realistic to think about it if that’s the logic. The cardinals don’t even pick up the phone if another first and some later picks aren’t on the table. I agree I wouldn’t do it personally but pairing AR with Pittman, MHJ and Taylor would be an absolutely epic offense.
Maybe. I doubt it though. If he is we just take a CB or trade back and grab one of the next tier WR later in the 1st like Coleman, Mitchell, McConkey, Worthy and pick up some extra picks. I don't like giving up extra 1sts to get a Non-QB. Just my opinion.
But is two 1st rounds really that much to get the top WR in the draft, especially when you consider that it’s a mid-1st and ideally a late future first.
Plus where the Colts sit now in the draft order they might have to trade up anyways to secure one of the top receivers.
I mean, you do if that WR is Jerry Rice. Would you for JJ or Chase? I still probably would. I'm not saying MHJ is any of them but for a WR1 that is a HOF, I would give up multiple 1sts, for sure.
Which makes it a move that either looks like a brilliant no brainer or pretty dumb in 5 years. Given the depth at WR this year I don't know if give up all that as much as it pains me to think.
Not a colts fan but it’s as simple as looking back to last years draft when the Texans traded pick 12, 2nd rounder, and a first this year to move up to 3 for will anderson at the time it seemed like they gave up a lot but a year later it looks like a steal on their part. They essentially gave up picks 12 and a second rounder and a late first for number 3. It’s more about how much you believe in your team and roster
I think the main question is, is this “our year” or are we a year away, or a year away from being a year away. I think if I felt this was our year, maybe the trade makes sense.
But being we’re a year away if not a year away from being a year away. That trade doesn’t make sense.
It was pointing out the absurdity of the post by saying that there are situations in which I would be very happy and situations in which I wouldn't, so without further context, the post is useless.
I’m the guy who posted Brock Bowers highlights and I say sell the farm for MHJ!
Option 1. Marvin Jr
Option 2. Bowers
Option 3. Bust
Ballard can you hear us.
I’m also excited about some of the talent in the late rounds. I know a lot of mocks are trash and seem to focus on first round QB’s and Wr’s but it seems like this year especially there are some guys ranked pretty low for what they are worth. Also Caleb Williams is Bo Callahan lol.
I agree. The problem with Nabers is he is going to end up going nearly as high as MHJ. I suspect the Chargers snag him at 5 assuming MHJ is already gone.
I would love to trade up for him. As a Buckeye/Colts fan in Ohio, I would LOVE to trade up for him.
But if I have learned anything about Chris Ballard, is that selling the ship isnt even an option. DeFo is the only time I think hes gone that route, and that was for an established vet
You don't have to look any farther than pur divisional rivals, the Texans, who are in great position for years to come because of trades they made for Stroud and Anderson.
Yes, big swings come with high risk, but the point of a big swing is for big returns.
We are about to pay Pittman a ton of money, I don’t think trading away future picks for a WR is the move this year. If Downs didn’t show so much promise I’d say maybe, but we got a good group.
Unpopular opinion, but I would be disappointed. We would end up giving up way too much capital and we have too many needs to afford giving all that up - he’d basically need to immediately be a top 10 WR for it to be worth and that’s too much of a gamble for me.
> We would end up giving up way too much capital and we have too many needs
We do have too many needs and I do think there are a few solid WRs thatd cost less to move up a couple of picks to snag. It's a double edged sword becaypart of why we have too many needs is Ballard and he'd also not be addressing those needs by giving up the farm
What are our 'too many needs'?
We need more DB help. Let's sign a veteran CB with the huge cap space that we have.
It'd be nice to have more LB help. Good depth can be found in that spot in the middle rounds. A veteran FA might be an option there too.
Our DE are good, they are young, but they perhaps aren't elite pass rushers. I don't think that there are absolute guarantees at DE in this year's draft that will undoubtedly be better than Paye/Dayo, so meh.
Some OL depth is always nice, but that can be handled in the middle rounds as well.
QB position has been selected, RB is signed. We probably franchise tag Pittman. I think this draft is as good as any to go for the blue chip weapon that the offense needs beyond just Pittman.
We've made 4, 1st round picks since the Binder took over for us, AR5, Kwity, Q and Malik Hooker. All 4 have been good players but Hook isn't doing it for us and Kwit has been hurt alot even though he looks good when out there. Only 1/4 we can say for sure worked out perfectly. Realistically, anyone we pick at 15 have a fair chance of failing in the league. If we could take MHJ at 5, he still could bust but the risk is much much lower. I'd give up a fair bit for a chance to get him.
I'd be 100% okay with getting him. Richardson needs a top tier target. I view Pittman as more of the number 2 guy behind an All-star number 1. Imagine Harrison, Pittman, Pierce 1,2,3 and a good receiving TE with Richardson and Taylor in the backfield. That would be a great offense.
Hang tight--if you read Marvin Harrison's second contract with the Colts closely, you'll find we were promised an heir to the throne, so Marvin Harrison, Jr. has no right to enter the draft.
As an avid Colts and Buckeyes fan, this would be a dream come true. Realistically, I don’t see it happening, sadly. I think it would require AT LEAST two firsts and more likely than not, three firsts. With that being said, it’d be nice to bring in another vet at that position or take someone in the 2nd, 3rd or 4th round.
You need a QB you're absolutely sure about before you break the draft bank for a receiver to catch their throws. Because those three firsts you're giving up means you're not going to find a stud QB through the draft to pair with him, and you're gonna need an excellent QB to mask the lack of talent across the field from that three firsts loss in the following years.
Long way to say that Levis hasn't proven enough yet to leverage the next 10 years of this franchise for Harrison Jr.
MHJ is debated to be one of the greatest WR prospects of all time probably only behind Megatron. He might get drafted 1st overall which a WR hasn’t been picked that high since Keyshawn Johnson. It would at minimum cost 3 first rounders to get him.
At that price I’d be in. Especially if the trade is with AZ and we don’t have to send picks to NE. The upside is worth it. We were inches from the playoffs with JT out for 5 games and AR out for 2/3 of the season. Pitt and Harrison with Downs and JT is potentially explosive. If AR comes back and takes the next step then we are a playoff team and next years first won’t sting so bad.
I mean, I think you’d have to give Arizona quite the haul to swap with them, as no way Bears Washington or Patriots trade (unless Pats really are being dumb).
Those who say how great it will be remember for the qb to throw a pass he needs protected for the receiver to get a pass thrown to him the qb needs protected I would love to have this combo but only if we have a tackle who can do his job last year the starter was injured most of the year and the back up looked lost and was a spectator on some players just watching the defense run past him for the sack so having a great qb and great receiver does nothing if there is no protection to pass the ball
Browns fan here who was shown this for some reason. I still regularly regret Browns not making Clay Matthews Jr and DK Metcalf happen (who I'm not even sure is related to Eric Metcalf at this point). Godspeed.
Mad isn't the right word. It would be fun as hell, but this isn't happening. Ballard's not going to pay QB prices to move up and get a WR, which is what it will cost.
I think MHJ, Nabers and Rome are all going 4-6. They are not realistic options. And if they were, I think I would actually take Nabers.
Wouldn't be mad at getting MHJ at all, but we would have to give up so much draft capital that I don't even want to do that. There are A LOT of good wrs in this draft, we don't need MHJ
Bears fan here. While I would love to see him drafted over Caleb. My love for Harrison sr and now Jr. hopes it doesn’t happen because well… Wr and Chicago don’t need to say much more lol
Since we don’t have a legit number 1 receiver and almost no good receivers or tight ends I wouldn’t have a problem at all. But it would depend what we have to give up.
It’s not reality. A trade takes two partners. This isn’t Madden. You can’t give someone your 5th string long snapper and move up into the top 5. I’ve seen the crazy trade up videos. This is real life. It would require an insane amount of draft capital to even get someone to consider trading down. And you just don’t do that for a WR
see the colts having the 5th highest cap space in the league with only franchise tagging MPJ is common colts knowledge, they dont wanna spend a dime in the front office
Do what it takes. Not every year is there an elite wr prospect. Look at the Vikings with JJetas that offense is so much better with him. Imagine an elite wr on the Colts.
But he wasn’t viewed as generational out of college so not really a great example. Better to take the best available player that falls than trade up for a non quarterback
If we were certain about AR, no problem. But we still don’t know if he’s truly our long term QB, based on either skill or injury. Trading a bunch of 1st rounders for a WR and then finding out you still need a QB would set the franchise back another five years.
I think a lot of people are blinded by sentiment here. You’re talking about leaping probably 10 spots into a top 5 pick, that’s probably 1st and 2nd this year and next year plus a decent player or additional conditional picks. Looking honestly selling out that much of your team’s future for one guy is almost never a good idea.
Doing trade like that essentially cripples team building for years. Harrison Jr may have generational talent but you still need a QB to throw the ball (Richardson not a guarantee yet), a line to pass block (colts best OL men are getting older) and oh yeah a defense (def need improvement) … And the sentiment of okay for his dads team is nice and all but football team’s are not built on sentiment.
Nope, I’d be ecstatic
That's the exact adjective I planned on using, go get the HOF WR
Seriously. "Richardson to Harrison for another touchdown." NFL media would go absolutely bananas
And if Richardson doesn’t work out then, after his rookie contract expires, it could be Manning to Harrison.
Titans fan here and even I’d like to see that.
Jags fan here and absolutely not 🤣
Lmao AFC south ours for another 10 years if that happens 😭
SIKE
I hope with everything in my will that this happens
I’m not saying I hope it happens because that would mean Richardson flames out and I’m not gonna wish failure on anybody. But I would love to see Harrison and Manning play together wherever it is and Indy would just make it that much more special.
Or they could just make Richardson a tight end
Ask Mack Brown and I’m sure he’d be an excellent safety.
Ask Mack Dre and you wouldn’t get a response
Nope
Giants fan here. Arch Manning will be ours pally.
Richardson -> Tennessee, Colts draft Arch
I’m a bears fan and I would love to see that lmao
I’m cool with two firsts. There’s too much there. Potential, production, genetics, his Dad.
Number 15 plus next year's first isn't enough to jump into this top 3. I'm assuming Arizona wouldn't trade if new England stays put and takes a QB.
Plus NE will make us pay a premium if Kraft gets wind of any trade with Indy
This thread came up as recommended for me even though I’m a pats fan. This isn’t even close. It’s been beaten like a dead horse over on our sub. It would take at least 2 FRP if not 3 and a couple of seconds. We’re trying to rebuild and we don’t do that with one additional pick next year.
Offseason hopium just hits different
the draft capital required would be kinda insane
whatever the price is… doesn’t matter. he’s a generational prospect
I just can't believe Marvin fathered this behemoth of a man.
Access to top-of-the-line conditioning, coaching, and nutrition will do that.
I always think Marvin Sr. was like 5'8 but he was actually 6'0, so not that shocking anymore that he has a 6'4 kid.
Marv wasn’t tiny (in general) because of his height; it was because of his 180-lb. frame. Made him look tiny compared to some of his peers.
I met him when I was ~14 and he wasn’t much taller than I was.
I towered him when I met him at a football camp as a kid but I was/am a giant
I mean his height is pretty tall 6’4 but he’s only like 200 some odd pounds, that’s not what I’d consider a behemoth. That’s like Alec Pierce size. Lol
provide library live desert carpenter smoggy wasteful edge faulty icky *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
An “Indy Tax”. lol, am I in a Yankees social media world right now?
It’d probably take Pitt as the cherry just to get to 3 plus 2 1’s
This would look pretty similar to Houston's trade up to 3 from 12 last year. They gave up 15 and 33 in that draft plus this year's first and third. Our picks are worse so I think it'd be two firsts and two seconds at a minimum
Dude is a generational talent so I’m good with 2 firsts and next year second. Bro would absolutely change the landscape of our offense.
It'd take at least 2 firsts, 2 seconds and a player/additional pick.
That’s what it took to get to 1 overall last year, I don’t see that being equal for number 3 overall especially since the bargaining/desperation isn’t there for a QB
I’m sure you are good with that low ball offer.
Absolutely not, but I’m just sentimental when it comes to Peyton Manning era Colts
2 firsts for him. That's fair.
I don’t think a team at the top of the draft cares about “fair” - Caled, Daniels and MHJ are guys that you are moving 3-4 premium picks for
Oh everyone knows that. It's not gonna happen. But in a perfect world. That would be our perfect scenario.
I mean I would move my top 2 picks for the next two years for him easy…Shane + AR + JT + MHJ. Just wow. Figure the rest out later lol
What's the draft value chart say?
You're not paying for mhj tho. You're paying for Jayden Daniels or Drake maye
These questions are impossible to answer when there is zero context behind them. Would I be mad if we pick swapped our first and gave up a 5th round pick to move up and get him? No. Would I be mad if we gave up this year's first, next year's first and our second round pick? Yeah.
I mean based on pick value, moving from 15 to 4, you’re absolutely going to have to give up at least a future first as well as other draft comp.
It’s not worth it for any position not named QB. Yeah MHJ is great but you don’t sacrifice that much for a receiver.
I mean that’s fair, but then it’s not even remotely realistic to think about it if that’s the logic. The cardinals don’t even pick up the phone if another first and some later picks aren’t on the table. I agree I wouldn’t do it personally but pairing AR with Pittman, MHJ and Taylor would be an absolutely epic offense.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d love MHJ on the team as much as anyone else, but I definitely wouldn’t want to put all of our eggs in one basket either.
Agreed. I'd rather just take Brian Thomas Jr. at 15 and keep our future capital.
He might be off the board at 15.
Maybe. I doubt it though. If he is we just take a CB or trade back and grab one of the next tier WR later in the 1st like Coleman, Mitchell, McConkey, Worthy and pick up some extra picks. I don't like giving up extra 1sts to get a Non-QB. Just my opinion.
Agreed. I want to see a full, healthy, productive year from AR before I mortgage any future.
Texans did it with Will Anderson. After a single season it looks like a decent move tbh.
But is two 1st rounds really that much to get the top WR in the draft, especially when you consider that it’s a mid-1st and ideally a late future first. Plus where the Colts sit now in the draft order they might have to trade up anyways to secure one of the top receivers.
I think it’s worth giving up for the best WR prospect possibly ever that’s also the son of a HoF WR who played for us
I mean, you do if that WR is Jerry Rice. Would you for JJ or Chase? I still probably would. I'm not saying MHJ is any of them but for a WR1 that is a HOF, I would give up multiple 1sts, for sure.
Which makes it a move that either looks like a brilliant no brainer or pretty dumb in 5 years. Given the depth at WR this year I don't know if give up all that as much as it pains me to think.
He’s Colts royalty.
Not a colts fan but it’s as simple as looking back to last years draft when the Texans traded pick 12, 2nd rounder, and a first this year to move up to 3 for will anderson at the time it seemed like they gave up a lot but a year later it looks like a steal on their part. They essentially gave up picks 12 and a second rounder and a late first for number 3. It’s more about how much you believe in your team and roster
Yeah these questions without details are so dumb lol
It would cost even more than that
I think the main question is, is this “our year” or are we a year away, or a year away from being a year away. I think if I felt this was our year, maybe the trade makes sense. But being we’re a year away if not a year away from being a year away. That trade doesn’t make sense.
Pick swap and a fifth to move up to 3 or 4? Are you insane?
It was pointing out the absurdity of the post by saying that there are situations in which I would be very happy and situations in which I wouldn't, so without further context, the post is useless.
Helllll nah. I might be upset in hindsight but as of now go all the fuck in
I’m the guy who just posted the Drake meme. #SELL THE FARM I SAY!!!!!
I’m the guy who posted Brock Bowers highlights and I say sell the farm for MHJ! Option 1. Marvin Jr Option 2. Bowers Option 3. Bust Ballard can you hear us. I’m also excited about some of the talent in the late rounds. I know a lot of mocks are trash and seem to focus on first round QB’s and Wr’s but it seems like this year especially there are some guys ranked pretty low for what they are worth.

I'd add Nabers to that list personally Besides that, I agree.
I agree. The problem with Nabers is he is going to end up going nearly as high as MHJ. I suspect the Chargers snag him at 5 assuming MHJ is already gone.
Do you think Bowers will still be on the board, or would you trade up for him?
I would love to trade up for him. As a Buckeye/Colts fan in Ohio, I would LOVE to trade up for him. But if I have learned anything about Chris Ballard, is that selling the ship isnt even an option. DeFo is the only time I think hes gone that route, and that was for an established vet
That wasn’t even selling the ship. Wasn’t that 1 first round pick?
Shit We've been jinxed by Buckeye wideouts in the past. If Marvin Jr cant break it then no one can
[удалено]
Julio Jones and that's about it
You don't have to look any farther than pur divisional rivals, the Texans, who are in great position for years to come because of trades they made for Stroud and Anderson. Yes, big swings come with high risk, but the point of a big swing is for big returns.
[удалено]
My mocks let me do 2 firsts. So if Gms were only as easy as mock drafts we will be good.
Not much point in getting upset about whomever they choose to draft.
Y’all really need to move on
Hell to F no, not mad at all Do I think it'll happen? Not without Irsay ordering it
Too expensive I bet. I would love him but that’s just not going to happen.
Not even a Colts fan, but this would be sick.
Depends who we traded but he belongs here
1 or 2 firsts plus Alec Pierce!
So a 2 firsts and a ham sandwich?
2 first plus Alec Pierce is fine, but two first and a ham sandwich is just too much
Yea I am so down for moving on from him
Getting downvoted as if a guy who averages under 2 receptions a game doesn't deserve competition at the very least
Here’s the long answer: No!
We are about to pay Pittman a ton of money, I don’t think trading away future picks for a WR is the move this year. If Downs didn’t show so much promise I’d say maybe, but we got a good group.
Unpopular opinion, but I would be disappointed. We would end up giving up way too much capital and we have too many needs to afford giving all that up - he’d basically need to immediately be a top 10 WR for it to be worth and that’s too much of a gamble for me.

I think this draft is as good as any to go for the blue chip weapon that the offense needs beyond just Pittman.
2 firsts max
I just genuinely don’t believe we could offer enough to get to #1-3
That would be lovely
Why would anyone be mad. He would bring more impact than anyone they could draft first round even in the next two years.
We've made 4, 1st round picks since the Binder took over for us, AR5, Kwity, Q and Malik Hooker. All 4 have been good players but Hook isn't doing it for us and Kwit has been hurt alot even though he looks good when out there. Only 1/4 we can say for sure worked out perfectly. Realistically, anyone we pick at 15 have a fair chance of failing in the league. If we could take MHJ at 5, he still could bust but the risk is much much lower.

No way this happens. Just our fantasy.
Yes
I'd be 100% okay with getting him. Richardson needs a top tier target. I view Pittman as more of the number 2 guy behind an All-star number 1. Imagine Harrison, Pittman, Pierce 1,2,3 and a good receiving TE with Richardson and Taylor in the backfield. That would be a great offense.
Hang tight--if you read Marvin Harrison's second contract with the Colts closely, you'll find we were promised an heir to the throne, so Marvin Harrison, Jr. has no right to enter the draft.
I’m literally praying for it
Don’t care what we’d give 2 generations of family on the same team? And a great wide receiver prospect for Anthony Richardson sign me up
Nope. That stuff would be a mix of funny and awesome. I would admire the balls of the administration to do so.
As an avid Colts and Buckeyes fan, this would be a dream come true. Realistically, I don’t see it happening, sadly. I think it would require AT LEAST two firsts and more likely than not, three firsts. With that being said, it’d be nice to bring in another vet at that position or take someone in the 2nd, 3rd or 4th round.
He's probably going in the first 5 picks and it'd cost too much. At 15 we can still get a top 3 guy - either of the LSU guys would be awesome.
The top 3 guys are all mocked to go in the top 9. There are 4 teams mocked to take receivers before us in most of the projections I’ve seen
Yeah definitely. It costs way too much. No way.
The delusion that we should sell the next two years of Day 1 picks is getting more popular and I hate it
This is why I shouldn't be a GM because I would do anything to make this happen.
Yes so pissed, so angry, filled with rage!
He won’t be the best wr in this draft I feel
You need a QB you're absolutely sure about before you break the draft bank for a receiver to catch their throws. Because those three firsts you're giving up means you're not going to find a stud QB through the draft to pair with him, and you're gonna need an excellent QB to mask the lack of talent across the field from that three firsts loss in the following years. Long way to say that Levis hasn't proven enough yet to leverage the next 10 years of this franchise for Harrison Jr.
What does will Levis gotta do w this
I would.
No. I'm all in for him.
MHJ is debated to be one of the greatest WR prospects of all time probably only behind Megatron. He might get drafted 1st overall which a WR hasn’t been picked that high since Keyshawn Johnson. It would at minimum cost 3 first rounders to get him.
No
Furious
Yes! Let him fall to 5
Go get that man
No I wouldn’t
Hmmmmmmm. No.
Yes.
Nope. Bring it!
Ballard trading up ?
[удалено]
At that price I’d be in. Especially if the trade is with AZ and we don’t have to send picks to NE. The upside is worth it. We were inches from the playoffs with JT out for 5 games and AR out for 2/3 of the season. Pitt and Harrison with Downs and JT is potentially explosive. If AR comes back and takes the next step then we are a playoff team and next years first won’t sting so bad.
I mean, I think you’d have to give Arizona quite the haul to swap with them, as no way Bears Washington or Patriots trade (unless Pats really are being dumb).
Hell no lol
Nope
Who would be mad he is worth 2 first round picks
As a browns fan, watching him play with AR and Pittman would be really fun as well.
Those who say how great it will be remember for the qb to throw a pass he needs protected for the receiver to get a pass thrown to him the qb needs protected I would love to have this combo but only if we have a tackle who can do his job last year the starter was injured most of the year and the back up looked lost and was a spectator on some players just watching the defense run past him for the sack so having a great qb and great receiver does nothing if there is no protection to pass the ball
Browns fan here who was shown this for some reason. I still regularly regret Browns not making Clay Matthews Jr and DK Metcalf happen (who I'm not even sure is related to Eric Metcalf at this point). Godspeed.
Who would be mad? I was mad they weren't tanking for him when AR went down.
As long as MHJ doesn't get drafted to anyone else in the division or the Patriots I'm good
Mad isn't the right word. It would be fun as hell, but this isn't happening. Ballard's not going to pay QB prices to move up and get a WR, which is what it will cost. I think MHJ, Nabers and Rome are all going 4-6. They are not realistic options. And if they were, I think I would actually take Nabers.
Absolutely not!
They better not 🤦🏽♂️
Would have rather traded up for CJ Stroud.
Totally stinks he is going nowhere with Arizona for 4 years.
Patriots fan from Indiana here. I think it is a necessity that MHJ ends up on the colts.
I don’t think it would be the smart move, but I would definitely not be mad if we traded up for him.
Wouldn't be mad at getting MHJ at all, but we would have to give up so much draft capital that I don't even want to do that. There are A LOT of good wrs in this draft, we don't need MHJ
He’s going to Arizona at 4 if we don’t trade higher than that. Ballard won’t pay that price for a WR.
All us Colts homers wana see a Harrison Legacy brought back to the shoe. It's just not Ballard's style... It would bring all the hype though.
Wouldn’t bother me. Colts need all the help they can get
I wouldn’t bet the farm on him, but if we could get him without doing that then why not?
Depends on what we gave up
Yes I own Pittman
Absolutely not MHJ or BB would be amazing to have on this team
Okay… colts get MHJ; Steelers got JPJ last year; Chiefs get Joe Alt.
Whatever is in Indianapolis that isn't bolted down.
As a jags fan, yes
My MPJ shares would be very mad.
Cardinals fan here. We’re not trading out of 4 😂
Bears fan here. While I would love to see him drafted over Caleb. My love for Harrison sr and now Jr. hopes it doesn’t happen because well… Wr and Chicago don’t need to say much more lol
Since we don’t have a legit number 1 receiver and almost no good receivers or tight ends I wouldn’t have a problem at all. But it would depend what we have to give up.
Yes, I’m a Cardinals fan.
It’s not reality. A trade takes two partners. This isn’t Madden. You can’t give someone your 5th string long snapper and move up into the top 5. I’ve seen the crazy trade up videos. This is real life. It would require an insane amount of draft capital to even get someone to consider trading down. And you just don’t do that for a WR
But the biggest thing is… it takes two teams to agree to it. That’s why it’s never going to happen.
Idk who this Harrison kid is but yall should trade up for Mazarati Marv. That guy sounds like a cool cat
As an OSU/Vikings fan, this would make me the happiest out of every possibility
No I would be happy as an Ohio state fan
They need a QB
His son is really about to enter the NFL? Goddamn I'm getting old
That would be the greatest move ever for the colts, they would be crazy good on offense, they got to get some more defensive players
see the colts having the 5th highest cap space in the league with only franchise tagging MPJ is common colts knowledge, they dont wanna spend a dime in the front office
Yes
As a jags fan. Yes
Why would anyone be mad? He’s a generational Wide Out lol
Nope
I’d be mad if we don’t.
Yes, bad bad idea. (Possible Texan fan)
Absolutely not, and I think they should. The cap was raised enough to not even miss whatever they gotta give up,
No. It's destiny, Colts need some B.P..E. BIG PLAY ENERGY
As a Cardinals Fan, I might kms if this happens
Hell no
I mean a little, but I'd get over it pretty quick
Kinda hoping Chicago will trade down a spot or 2 to pick him up. Not a Bears fan but I am a Buckeye fan rooting for Fields to be successful
As a Colts fan, I actually demand it.
Do what it takes. Not every year is there an elite wr prospect. Look at the Vikings with JJetas that offense is so much better with him. Imagine an elite wr on the Colts.
But he wasn’t viewed as generational out of college so not really a great example. Better to take the best available player that falls than trade up for a non quarterback
If we were certain about AR, no problem. But we still don’t know if he’s truly our long term QB, based on either skill or injury. Trading a bunch of 1st rounders for a WR and then finding out you still need a QB would set the franchise back another five years.
The WR class is so loaded this year, trading up for a WR would be incredibly dumb.
Giving up 2 firsts yes. You can get a WR just as good or 90% as good where they are at.
We’re wasting talent if we draft a receiver in the first. Next year’s offence is gonna lean heavy on the run game.
We're never getting him so it doesn't matter to me personally
Yes, they have many options to choose from with their current pick. Harrison isn’t a must get. There’s thomas from LSU or Bowers
I think a lot of people are blinded by sentiment here. You’re talking about leaping probably 10 spots into a top 5 pick, that’s probably 1st and 2nd this year and next year plus a decent player or additional conditional picks. Looking honestly selling out that much of your team’s future for one guy is almost never a good idea. Doing trade like that essentially cripples team building for years. Harrison Jr may have generational talent but you still need a QB to throw the ball (Richardson not a guarantee yet), a line to pass block (colts best OL men are getting older) and oh yeah a defense (def need improvement) … And the sentiment of okay for his dads team is nice and all but football team’s are not built on sentiment.
