    Why would the Colts do that? a 1 year rental in DeVito is useless to a rebuilding team, and Calvin Pace's contract has trade value somewhere between a decomposing corpse and a bag full of dog shit.

    They got a shit load of cap room, their switching to a 3-4 with no personnel, Pace and DeVito(for example) add some leadership help the transition for some guys, its just an example of something Tanny might look into, if you think he stays put until the 6th Round then you're out of your mind

    He's explosive, fast, super strong, and a heck of a tackler. I guess 6'2 is a little short? Looks like he graded 3-6 rounds, depending on who you ask. The guys who graded him a 3 say it's just because he's a small school guy, and that he's a steal in the 3rd.
    I guess we'll find out.

    No. Apparently that slow 40 time was very costly.

    Who needs a free safety in the NFL to play on defense? Not this team apparently.

    We desperately need a 4th round pick, since hunter is our RT we need to snag a FS or RB

    How did you possibly become a 2/12er? We lost out stupid 4th on Tebow. We lost our frickin FS on Tebow.

    Edit: that was supposed to be more humorous.

    Just saw this. It would have certainly been interesting, Id love to see a move to somehow get him tomorrow but i guess thats most likely out of the question.

    His interviews must have been dreadful because there is no way a talent like Miller falls this far without any firm reasoning.

    Was really hoping that iloka would be our round 3 pick. Maybe we trade back into the 4th although I think we only have 2 tradeable picks left.

    I say we trade whatever we can to get back up and grab Iloka. There are several experienced RTs in Free Agency--not so with FSs.

    would have no problem with this but I guess techie ally we would have to use a pick from next year. I think we only have a 6th & 7th round pick left that can be traded.

    Coples is said to have slacked off in his senior year, but I really like the talk about how he was without his coaches and was simply staying healthy for the draft. The guy may be a monster.

    Supposedly Miami said he should stay another year and let his shoulder heal because its not in good shape... He didnt listen and I guess teams are really taking that into account.

    Also reports have said he has a hard time learning an offense so thats an obvious flag.

    I would love to get him though if we could somehow manage the trade... Kids got all the physical talent. I would have loved him in the 2nd, now it just seems like crazy value haha

    I'd like to see how far he does fall, at this point, with solid RBs left over, he may fall into the fifth. IF that is the case, I'd trade next years 4th to get back into the 5th in order to take him. Greene needs to split carries with someone solid who can also come in on 3rd downs. Miller is perfect for that role and eventually if Miller can start, Greene becomes even more valuable since he is better off as a second half RB than he is a first (beating up on tired defenses).
